Consolas-Nerd-Font-Ligaturized

Consolas is property of Microsoft so it can't be redistributed here. But it is included in all versions of Windows. Here is a script to patch it. This can probably be used with other fonts too.

How to use

  1. Install git, fontforge and python3 eg with winget install Git.Git FontForge.FontForge Python3. Add FontForge bin folder to PATH.
  2. Clone this repo with git clone --recurse-submodules --remote-submodules https://github.com/C4illin/Consolas-Nerd-Font-Ligaturized.git (this will take a while)
  3. Locate the four Consolas font files on your system and copy them to Original. They are usually located in C:\Windows\Fonts and are named consola.ttf, consolab.ttf, consolai.ttf and consolaz.ttf. Here you can actually drop any font you want to patch, but do them one at a time.
  4. Install requests from pip and run python patch.py
  5. Install the patched font from the Output folder

Use in VSCode

  1. Set "editor.fontFamily": "'LigaConsola Nerd Font', ...
  2. Set "editor.fontLigatures": true,
  3. You may also set "debug.console.fontFamily": and "terminal.integrated.fontFamily":

Update

  1. Run git pull
  2. Run git submodule update --recursive --remote
  3. Run python patch.py which will also update the Nerd Font patcher
