Just to verify, this only works in those few terminals that support ligatures in fixed-width fonts, right?
Correct. It seems OSX would give you ligatures "for free" with the included text rendering, but most terminals implement text in some other more complicated way.
I tried on OSX with iTerm2 and no ligatures are rendered, just separate characters. But it's on the "not supported" list so no surprise. Anyone happen know how to get OS X font rendering to do it? The iterm guys are very responsive to feature requests or patches.
I tried, see https://code.google.com/p/iterm2/issues/detail?id=2974 for more information. -Ian
