🎨 An universal palette for Nerd Fonts

🎨 glyph-palette

glyph-palette (Glyph palette) is a plugin to universally apply colors on Nerd Fonts.

With this plugin, the following (and potentially more) Nerd Fonts integrations will be nicely highlighted.

• vim-devicons
• nerdfont.vim
• fern-renderer-nerdfont.vim

Usage

First of all, make sure that you are using one of Nerd Fonts patched fonts (e.g. Fonts in Patched Fonts or Cica for Japanese). Visit Nerd Fonts homepage for more detail.

After that, call glyph_palette#apply() function on a target buffer like:

augroup my-glyph-palette
  autocmd! *
  autocmd FileType fern call glyph_palette#apply()
  autocmd FileType nerdtree,startify call glyph_palette#apply()
augroup END

Then glyphs in g:glyph_palette#palette on the buffer will be highlighted by predefined highlight groups.

See :help glyph-palette-usage for more details

Icons are narrowed in mintty

Hi, if I use the plugin in mintty the characters get narrowed after applying palette:

This may be related to the following issue: mintty/mintty#1104
I'm not sure if it is 100% correct way, but if I apply following update to function! s:apply():

@@ -43,7 +43,7 @@ function! s:apply() abort
   endif
   let w:glyph_palette_matches = map(
         \ copy(b:glyph_palette_palette),
-        \ { -> matchadd(v:key, v:val) },
+        \ { -> matchadd(v:key, v:val.' ') },
         \)
endfunction

the issue gets fixed:

Thank you!

Bug: Greek letter lambda (λ) appear yellow when termguicolors is enabled and I open a file inside Startify with glyph-palette enabled

When termguicolors is enabled and I try to open a file inside Startify with glyph-palette plugin enabled and I start writing in the file, the greek letter lambda (λ) appear yellow instead of white.

Autocmd to call glyph_palette#apply not working on draw open

Hi 👋 , thanks for this great plugin! This might not be a plugin problem, but a user error 😅 Hoping you can point me in the right direction. I am having an issue with the recommended autocmd not working as expected.

augroup my-glyph-palette
  autocmd!
  autocmd FileType fern call glyph_palette#apply()
augroup END

When I load a Fern buffer using either :Fern or vim . from the command line, I get glyph icons in just one colour. When I move my cursor to a different window, and then move back to the fern window, the glyph icons change to use highlighted colours. This tells me that the autocmd is there, but perhaps is happening out of order, or too early in some cases.

Have you seen this behavour before? Are you able to suggest an fixes? Thanks for your time 🙏

Glyphs appear offset in nerd tree

Hello,

I am on Arch Linux, kernel version 5.10.35-1-lts. My Nvim is in version v0.4.4

The following occurs in NerdTree when I install and use the glyph-palette.

Any idea as to why this happens?

Use palette from the default colorscheme

Thank you for the awesome plugin. I would like to suggest to use user's colorscheme for colors by default. Of course I can overwrite it in configuration, but just to make default colors more universal.
