The option `--complete` adds all symbols. ``` fontforge --script ./font-patcher --complete path/to/font ``` ## Install Dependencies in macOS ``` brew install fontforge ``` The script `font-patcher` starts with a shebang `#!usr/bin/env python`. Just change it to python3. Use system python since the dependencies are installed for system python. ## Usage LunarVim provides a [list of used icons](https://github.com/LunarVim/LunarVim/blob/rolling/lua/lvim/icons.lua). It's a good reference to choose the proper icons.
