Weird symbols in Mac OS
ljgonzalez1 opened this issue · comments
Describe the bug
In Mac OS some symbols look "broken" if they are not ASCII. Aparently there are some problems displaying some non ASCII characteres, both in its own terminal and over SSH to a linux terminal WITH UTF-8/Unicode support. While running natively on linux it shows fine
To Reproduce
You need either an ARM or Intel computer running Mac OS (it happens in both).
A. Through homebrew:
-
Install ncspot through the homebrew app:
brew install ncspot
-
Start ncspot and login with your credentials
ncspot
B. Compile ncspot from source
-
Install rust with the script provided in their website:
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
-
Clone the repo (recursively just in case) and go inside the folder:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/hrkfdn/ncspot ncspot cd ncspot -
Compile de code using cargo and the recommended flags
cargo build --no-default-features --features portaudio_backend,pancurses_backend
-
Start ncspot and login with your credentials
ncspot

Additional context
As a suggestion or a question, which files would I need to modify to add ASCII-only support?
If I want to create another version of ncspot which replaces all the unicode symbols with unicode + tty-supported characters.
I have the time now, so may be I could learn rust and make a PR with a flag for compiling it that way.
... this doesn't look that bad:
