Ligature in Space Mono

[GSteu]

The character combination of f and l will be combined to a ligature breaking the monospace.
I.e. the word flame uses only the space of 4 Characters

In a monospaced font for programming, I think I'd put fi and such into the dlig feature. So that they don't appear by default. I'm guessing its liga here, that's where they usually are put. liga is active by default.

@GSteu in your case, explicitly disabling liga should do the trick, if it is possible in your environment.

This is discussed at googlefonts/spacemono#2 :)

I had the same problem. Check out this repo. It has the font working correctly. https://github.com/ToxicFrog/Ligaturizer/releases

Will there be official support?
