# Intel One Mono
|
||
|
||
**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: 1.2.1
|
||
|
||
## Why `IntoneMono` and not `Intel One Mono`?
|
||
|
||
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][SIL-RFN]
|
||
|
||
Some fonts have parts of their name "reserved" per the [Reserved Font Name mechanism][SIL-RFN]:
|
||
> 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`, and `Encourage derivatives`
|
||
|
||
See the [Reserved Font Name section][SIL-RFN] for additional information
|
||
|
||
## Which font?
|
||
|
||
### TL;DR
|
||
|
||
* Pick your font family:
|
||
* If you are limited to monospaced fonts (because of your terminal, etc) then pick a font with `Nerd Font Mono` (or `NFM`).
|
||
* If you want to have bigger icons (usually around 1.5 normal letters wide) pick a font without `Mono` i.e. `Nerd Font` (or `NF`). 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` (or `NFP`).
|
||
|
||
### Ligatures
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
### Explanation
|
||
|
||
Once you narrow down your font choice of family (`Droid Sans`, `Inconsolata`, etc) and style (`bold`, `italic`, etc) you have 2 main choices:
|
||
|
||
#### `Option 1: Download already patched font`
|
||
|
||
* For a stable version download a font package from the [release page](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases)
|
||
* Direct links for [IntelOneMono.zip](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases/latest/download/IntelOneMono.zip) or [IntelOneMono.tar.xz](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases/latest/download/IntelOneMono.tar.xz)
|
||
|
||
#### `Option 2: Patch your own font`
|
||
|
||
* Patch your own variations with the various options provided by the font patcher (i.e. not include all symbols for smaller font size)
