Intel One Mono is an expressive monospaced font family that’s built with clarity, legibility, and the needs of developers in mind.
For more information have a look at the upstream website: https://github.com/intel/intel-one-mono
Version: 1.4.0
What's in a name? The reason for the name change is to comply with the SIL Open Font License (OFL), in particular the Reserved Font Name mechanism
Some fonts have parts of their name "reserved" per the Reserved Font Name mechanism:
No Modified Version of the Font Software may use the Reserved Font Name(s) unless explicit written permission is granted by the corresponding Copyright Holder. This restriction only applies to the primary font name as presented to the users.
- The main goals seem to be to:
Avoid collisions
,Protect authors
,Minimize support
, andEncourage derivatives
See the Reserved Font Name section for additional information
- Pick your font family:
- If you are limited to monospaced fonts (because of your terminal, etc) then pick a font with
Nerd Font Mono
(orNFM
). - If you want to have bigger icons (usually around 1.5 normal letters wide) pick a font without
Mono
i.e.Nerd Font
(orNF
). Most terminals support this, but ymmv. - If you work in a proportional context (GUI elements or edit a presentation etc) pick a font with
Nerd Font Propo
(orNFP
).
- If you are limited to monospaced fonts (because of your terminal, etc) then pick a font with
Ligatures are generally preserved in the patched fonts.
Nerd Fonts v2.0.0
had no ligatures in the Nerd Font Mono
fonts, this has been dropped with v2.1.0
.
If you have a ligature-aware terminal and don't want ligatures you can (usually) disable them in the terminal settings.
Once you narrow down your font choice of family (Droid Sans
, Inconsolata
, etc) and style (bold
, italic
, etc) you have 2 main choices:
- For a stable version download a font package from the release page
- Direct links for IntelOneMono.zip or IntelOneMono.tar.xz
- Patch your own variations with the various options provided by the font patcher (i.e. not include all symbols for smaller font size)
