Solve the mess

Oh My Posh Some topics of use special characters , A specific font is required to display correctly .

Generally, two fonts are installed ：Powerline fonts & Nerd fonts

Powerline Is a Vim statusline Plug in for , It uses many special icon character .Powerline fonts Is a font set , The essence is to type some existing fonts patch, hold powerline icon Add characters to these existing fonts , At present 30 The programming font is typed patch.

Nerd font Principle and Powerline fonts It's the same , Also for existing fonts patch, Some of the icon Insert characters . however Nerd font It's more powerful , It's a “ A great integrator ”, He almost put the current mainstream icon All the characters are typed in , Including the one just mentioned above powerline icon Characters and Font Awesome Wait for thousands icon character .

After installing fonts , Need to be in windows terminal Of JSON Set the font in the setting file , To take effect .

3.WSL go Windows agent

By default ,WSL Not going Windows Agent for , It needs to be set separately .

WSL and Windows Under the same LAN ,WSL It's a virtual host . So you need to open it first Clash Switch that allows LAN access , And set up firewall domain network . Principle that .

Due to the use of other anti-virus software , I choose to turn off the firewall directly .

Tried different schemes , Ultimately based on TAP Agent success . Turn on TAP See Official documents - TAP Pattern . It mainly refers to wsl2 How to set it to go clash Agent for ？37 Building solutions .

Tried TAN Pattern , But it didn't work .

4.JetBrain Remote development

about C++ Development , First, in the Linux Install a make Tools , for example CMake, then Clion Set up WSL As the default development tool chain ,Clion Will automatically identify the build and compile tools . See... For the specific operation process Official documents - WSL.

After setting successfully ,Clion Will use WSL Environment for building and compiling .
