Comic Shanns Mono

A legible monospace font... the very typeface you’ve been trained to recognize since childhood. The Comic Sans inspired monospaced font that's coming to a terminal or editor near you!

For more information have a look at the upstream website: https://github.com/jesusmgg/comic-shanns-mono

• Nerd Fonts corrects some issues of the font
• The font is based on Comic Shanns v2 by Shannon Miwa (https://github.com/shannpersand/comic-shanns)
• The excellent fork with references by Rodrigo Batista de Moraes is used instead (jesusmgg/comic-shanns-mono#7, https://github.com/Rodrigodd/comic-shanns-mono)
• The caron is corrected (vertically mirrored) by Nerd Fonts
• dcaron and tcaron are corrected with apothrophe by Nerd Fonts
• The Bold weight has been manually added by Nerd Fonts, inspired by Thai Pangsakulyanont's Comic Mono (https://github.com/dtinth/comic-mono-font)

Version: 1.3.1

Which font?

TL;DR

• Pick your font family:
  • If you are limited to monospaced fonts (because of your terminal, etc) then pick a font with Nerd Font Mono (or NFM).
  • If you want to have bigger icons (usually around 1.5 normal letters wide) pick a font without Mono i.e. Nerd Font (or NF). Most terminals support this, but ymmv.
  • If you work in a proportional context (GUI elements or edit a presentation etc) pick a font with Nerd Font Propo (or NFP).

Ligatures

Ligatures are generally preserved in the patched fonts. Nerd Fonts v2.0.0 had no ligatures in the Nerd Font Mono fonts, this has been dropped with v2.1.0. If you have a ligature-aware terminal and don't want ligatures you can (usually) disable them in the terminal settings.

Explanation

Once you narrow down your font choice of family (Droid Sans, Inconsolata, etc) and style (bold, italic, etc) you have 2 main choices:

Option 1: Download already patched font

• For a stable version download a font package from the release page
• Or download the development version from the folders here

Option 2: Patch your own font

• Patch your own variations with the various options provided by the font patcher (i.e. not include all symbols for smaller font size)
