Supply script for patching fonts

[rickard-von-essen]

Hi, nice work!

I would like to be able to use this with my usual font, Source Code Pro. It would be great with a script that could patch any font.

Thanks. Yep I knew this would be an issue as we don't all use the same powerline patched font :)

Ideally it would be nice to support all the current ones here: https://github.com/Lokaltog/powerline-fonts

I am making some progress on this. If you want to see:

Awesome! Also if the source of the icons are available it will make it
easier for people to contribute more icons.

@rickard-von-essen by making source of the icons available do you mean the svgs or just the font?

@rickard-von-essen as you can see I have pushed a new branch if you want to try out the patching or if you just want to try one of the already patched fonts.

Hi, just tested the patched Sauce Code font, but there seams to be some misalignment. When I open the webdevicons.vim file the default looks like:

Ah sorry about that. Yeah the latest commit on the feature branch I added more glyphs but unfortunately to avoid collisions I moved the original set to a new unicode range.

All you should have to do is grab that same webdevicons.vim file from the new branch (all the patched fonts on that branch should match up with the new webdevicons.vim)

Just realized that. It works fine using both the plugin and font from the
branch. Super!

Great. 😌

Mostly what I need to do before merging this in I think is working on the glyphs centering and scale.

Also most likely ill create a new repo for the patcher and fonts so those using a package manager can avoid the size overhead.

I actually decided to revert the unicode range i mentioned earlier. I didnt want to break everyones setup if they do an update in the future. for you if you pull master you might have to redownload the font. sorry if that causes any inconvenient.

new repo for fonts and patcher is here: https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-filetype-glyphs-fonts-patcher
