Removing the installed icons
raivivek opened this issue · comments
Hi, I tried the install-autodetect.sh script on my gnome-terminal and it seems to have completed successfully. However, when I ran print_icons.sh the icons did not show up, plus all the text on the terminal screen was garbled. I had to change the font to be able to restore sanity in the terminal.
In order to remove it, I removed the corresponding files generated by the script and updated the font-cache. However, that specific font (and the specific font-size) that was set in the terminal profile still continues the same behavior.
Hi @vivekiitkgp
Thanks for your report and I'm sorry to hear that, with the tests I ran on gnome-terminal everythings worked fine.
In order to remove the font, the steps you did should be enough.
The file to delete is ~/.fonts/icons-in-terminal.ttf and execute the command fc-cache -fvr --really-force ~/.fonts.
Try to close all gnome-terminal windows, I know that's it's necessary with terminator. It could be the same with gnome-terminal.
Did anything wrong happen when your ran install-autodetect.sh ? After running this command you restarted your terminal right ?
Is there an output when you run fc-list | grep icons-in-terminal ?
If there is no output, try to reboot your computer.
If you have some times I'm curious about what could be the problem.
Can you give me some informations about your system ? What version of gnome-terminator are you using ?
What distro are you using, what shell, and their versions ?
Thank you,
Sebastien
@vivekiitkgp I've added a script to uninstall icons-in-terminal. Can you try it ?
I'm closing the issue as I provide a script to uninstall completely icons-in-terminal.
@raivivek Feel free to comment here to help me to know why it didn't work for you
@sebastiencs Sorry for the late post. I had uninstalled everything that day, but it seems that closing "all" gnome-terminal windows fixed it for me. I just reinstalled, closed everything, and works like a charm!
Thanks for the uninstall script. Very handy indeed.
@raivivek Thanks for your feedback. I will add this instruction in the readme
