From 5b293c13a261f514b31dd1a54c8da9bebcc8363c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: romkatv Date: Tue, 17 Sep 2019 10:12:48 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] add font instructions for konsole and tilix; change instructions for gnome terminal The previous instructions for GNOME Terminal were simpler but they had a hidden risk. Namely, if users skip the first step (install Meslo) and go directly for the second (set Meslo as the default monospace font), their terminal gets fucked up.
