Linux | Be a Rebel

I have started using Monaco as my coding font. I also use this font in Konsole, KDE Terminal emulator. I don’t know since when, but iy has been a while that font in Konsole appears mis-aligned. Monaco is a fixed width font, so this problem is somewhat weird. As usual, a google search took me to this post and made these lines at the end of my ~/.fonts.conf, before


    <match target="font">
        <test name="family" compare="eq" qual="any"><string>Monaco</string></test>
        <edit name="autohint" mode="assign"><bool>false</bool></edit>
        <edit name="hintstyle" mode="assign"><const>hintnone</const></edit>
    </match>

<test name="family" compare="eq" qual="any"><string>Monaco</string></test>

<edit name="autohint" mode="assign"><bool>false</bool></edit>

<edit name="hintstyle" mode="assign"><const>hintnone</const></edit>

</match>

And this has really solved my problem for now.
