Just to verify, this only works in those few terminals that support ligatures in fixed-width fonts, right? 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 just tried this in gedit and it looks really nice! Thanks for putting this together.

Doesn't work in emacs though :-(

It's not that hard to make it work http://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/23g9dv/oc_haskell_programming_font_...

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.
