      Python weirdness on the Mac is why I got powerline to work on only one of my two machines (two iMac 5ks). They’re apparently installed quite differently. I’d be embarrassed if I cared even a little bit about python, so instead it’s mild curiosity.

      The fonts were an interesting sideline. Installing them was easy, except… I version control my home directory. This means I have a ton of subdirectories in my .gitignore file, else I go mad. (I like a clean repo.) Prior to this, Library had never had a file worth versioning.

      So, I had to figure out how to ignore a directory in git, and then un-ignore a sub directory. It was easy, but was a first for me there. Glad to be able to stick with inconsolata in all of my terminals. I’m sure there are better ones, but I’ve been pretty happy with it.

      I was a happy inconsolata user for a long while. Switched recently to Jetbrains Mono when that came out.https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/mono/

      Why did you switch? I have to admit that one of my goals in life is to only middling-care about fonts. I stopped getting better at them when I started noticing them everywhere. I’m annoying enough without criticizing the font choice of every written objet around me

      Mono is great, though somehow I am not a fan in terminals of it.

      Yeah weird, I have on iterm2 again to see if I can get used to it - too much inertia in my mind to change terminals I suspect, its not unlikable I am just being difficult :P

      Focus follow, meh :) I full screen everything and so don’t care. Which is also the other clincher for item - full screen doesn’t use apple full screen bullshit.

      I’m a big fan of either side by side, or one big window and two small ones. I just wish I could could arrange my Spaces in a grid instead of a line.

      spaces in a grid: https://totalspaces.binaryage.com/  someday, apple will make it stop working, and i will be sad. (Even now it requires disabling SIP.)

          Hmm I used to use that but it stopped working for a while so I guess they got it working again. Was very nice.
