Kitty: Incomplete font list

Created on 23 Apr 2018  路  3Comments  路  Source: kovidgoyal/kitty

Are there some restrictions done by kitty to the list of available fonts?
The list shown by 'list-fonts' is just a fraction of the fonts I normally can use.
I'm trying to use "PragmataPro", which is a commercial monospace ttf.
The font is is listed by "fc-list", so I wonder why it isn't usable by kitty.

It has to report itself as monospace, that is have a spacing property 100 not 90 or 110 which some badly designed monospace fonts report.

fc-list : family spacing | grep spacing

Ok, it turns out most of the fonts I'm interested are actally
dual-width.

Is there a plan to support those?

No, there isn't.
