[solved]urxvt font problem with powerline in vim

ssfdust · 2014-01-05 06:01:13

Hello, everyone
I want to make my zsh under urxvt look like this
https://gist.github.com/agnoster/371287 … enshot.png
It seems that I have succeeded
http://imagebin.org/index.php?mode=image&id=285220

But when I switch to vim interface ,the fancy symbols can't show
http://imagebin.org/index.php?mode=image&id=285221

And what's strange, the terminal(urxvt) still can't output the unicode character "2b80"
http://imagebin.org/index.php?mode=image&id=285222

I am using urxvt with font patch from aur, and costom vim complied with python and gui support enable(that 's the only difference from official repo)
All my used fonts are patched font from ttf-powerline-fonts-git and ttf-inconsolata-dz-powerline
And everying goes well in konsole.

~~BTW,when I choose to use *.otf fonts, urxvt can't start,like Inconsolata for Powerline.otf.~~

urxvt -fn "xft: Inconsolata for Powerline:style=Medium"
urxvt: unable to load base fontset, please specify a valid one using -fn, aborting.

Here is my .Xresources

EDIT:
Stubid me,I don't know when I switched /usr/share/fonts/OTF permissions to 644.I switch back to 755, now urxvt could use otf fonts.But the vim powerline problem remains.

Does your .vimrc include the required settings for powerline to work correctly? Please paste your vimrc.

For example, see here.

All the best,

If you replace the oversize images again, I'll simply delete the thread.

I have powerline replaced with airline.Now it works well.I finally found where the problem is.

In agnoster's zsh theme,the character "" was not "\u2b80" but "\ub0".And airline use the same character as agnoster's zsh theme.Though they look the same.And urxvt still doesn't support "\u2b80" in my system, but problem solved.
