Powerline is a statusline plugin for vim, and provides statuslines and prompts for several other applications, including zsh, bash, tmux, IPython, Awesome and Qtile.
This is the only thing stopping me from switching from Fira Code, and I think it's something that is important to a lot of people when picking a main programming font.
Would this also include Box Drawing and Block Elements, or should I open another ticket?
It's very convenient that "Fira code" does include these because it avoids the need to care for font fallbacks in your fontconfig (config problem mentioned here: #37)
Example for Box Drawing characters:
โโโ
โขโโฅ
โโญโ
โโงโ
Example for Block Elements:
โโโโโ

I made powerline version of Jetbrains Mono
But my PR was rejected maybe...
If you want, please use it!

Hi @pulberg , in v1.0.2 we added the Powerline set of glyphs. Is it working for you?
@philippnurullin It doesn't work with Regular version for me. Only for Medium and ExtraBold
@npupko What IDE you using?
@philippnurullin iTerm 2
Something cached. I've deleted the old fonts and everything began to work.
Thanks. This solved the problem for me.
Think this issue may be closed
@npupko how did your fix your issue? I'm having the same problem. I uninstalled the font and reinstalled it but I'm still having the same problem.
@hahuang65 I just play a little with my iTerm2 settings.
