## Troubleshooting
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### IRC Client
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
IRCCloud doesn't work very well. It's monospaced font is *Iconsolata*, served
|
||
|
|
up by Google Web Fonts, which doesn't draw the block characters correctly. In
|
||
|
|
addition it appears to ignore several lines. Don't use IRCCloud, it's for
|
||
|
|
people who habitually make bad decisions in life. Works best with a terminal
|
||
|
|
based client.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Terminal
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Don't use reverse video, just make foreground white on black background, but
|
||
|
|
not bright white, there should be two different whites, bright white and
|
||
|
|
grayish white, 16 unique colors in all.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Font
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The font you use needs to be monospaced obviously but if its missing some of
|
||
|
|
the block drawing unicode characters its going to borrow them from another
|
||
|
|
font, which will probably having a different width, resulting in poor alignment
|
||
|
|
and jagged edges. *Andale Mono* is the best I've found so far.
