I really want a caniuse.com (canicli / caniconsole?) of this data.
djoldman•2mo ago
Something close to that is the table here:

https://ucs-detect.readthedocs.io/results.html

It's not at the lowest granularity though.

userbinator•2mo ago
When you want plain text and nothing but plain text, Unicode in the terminal is a hazard.

bawolff•2mo ago
That has nothing to do with unicode.
dwattttt•2mo ago
> ucs-detect automatically tests the Unicode version and support level...

The first line of the site suggests otherwise.

bawolff•2mo ago
The link in userbinator's comment has nothing to do with unicode. ucs-detect obviously does.
rurban•2mo ago
Thanks for recommending foot. Never heard of this one
amelius•2mo ago
How can it detect if Unicode codepoints have corresponding glyphs?
yorwba•2mo ago
It cannot. But it can detect whether the terminal emulator is shifting the cursor by the correct number of cells when displaying a character.

Glyph support is typically left to the system font stack, but positioning and hence cursor movement needs to be handled by the terminal emulator.

amelius•2mo ago
In that case, I want a detection software that can screen-grab the terminal to check if the glyphs are correct.
chris_wot•2mo ago
Is there a way of reporting this to the terminal creators?
