# When using Unicode glyphs, care must be taken with how terminals
# render them and how completely fonts cover them.
#
# Depending on the font, terminal, and operating system, unsupported
# glyphs may be replaced by placeholder symbols (e.g. <20> U+FFFD
# replacement character or □ U+25A1 white square), omitted entirely, or
# substituted from fallback fonts. Such fallback can introduce visual
# inconsistencies due to differences in style, metrics, or alignment.
#
# Support for glyphs defined in the Windows Glyph List 4
# (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WGL4) is generally good across common
# fonts and platforms. Beyond that baseline, coverage becomes less
# predictable and should be evaluated case by case.
#
# Emoji support often is problematic, and wide glyphs occupy two display
# columns, which NetHack does not support.
#
# Symset Enhanced1 should be considered the conservative Unicode symset,
# while Enhanced2 (and any future symsets) may make use of more advanced
# Unicode features.
