Unicode Character Resembling the Logo of Arch Linux?

pikaren · 2014-11-19 01:17:15

I would like to find a Unicode character that looks like the logo of Arch to decorate the terminal.

The best I've found is ᐱ, but I wonder if there is a better candidate.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Not too bad, but I prefer something more fancy.

There are several modified fonts that have the arch logo (terminus-mod and tamsyn come to mind, but I haven't verified whether these have the arch logo). Would this work, or do you need it to be a standard unicode symbol?

Yes, I think that could be useful. Any more information please?

What more information do you need. Check out the community contributions sub-forum to find lots of archer-created fonts.

There's no dash in terminusmod: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/terminusmod/ but you should be able to find it via google anyway.

Just use one of the proposed fonts. Otherwise you could extract the logo from the black arch svg, upload it to icomoon.io and create your own font with an arch logo glyph.

Unicode 0x03bb or number 8 in arabic unicode 0x0668 or 0x06f8 greek delta 0x2206, last is Chinese character similar to arabic 8.

Are you trying to mod the /ect/issue file? I use the ScreenFetch all the time so I just copy pasted it to /ect/issue.

I know this is an old post but its high on the search results, so if you are using a nerd font it is 100%  (u+f303) or ? (u+f08c7)
