Oh well, it works and I don’t know why (gotta love when that happens…).

One second the fonts was just blank space, then *bam* Font Book crashes, I restart it and the fonts are there and working! I mainly use it in the terminal and my changed settings are:
Size 14pt.
Character spacing 1.05
Antialias text off

Oh, I copied the fonts stright into ~/Library/Fonts dunno if that makes any difference.

@Philip Paeps: I had this problem on my MBA as well and I recall I just removed antialias text but it didn’t work after fiddling some back and forth the font started working.

Now tho, I am on my new work MBP and it just refuses to work >_> Still trying to remember what the I did on the MBA to make it work…

Has anyone tried this on a recent “snow leopard”? I get blank terminal windows 1 character wide (and not horizontally resizable) when I tell it to use Terminus (both in iterm2 and in terminal.app). Antialiasing is off.

Help help! :)

I’m glad my post was helpful. Thanks for the note on anti-aliasing.

Thanks a lot!!! I’m used to the terminus font on my Linux box, and was really unhappy with Apple’s font. Now I can finally use Mac OS X terminal without a headache! (Note: don’t forget to turn anti-aliasing off, since this is a bitmap font.)

I found Eric version better suited for my tiny screen (just turn off antialiasing and everythong will look perfectly).

Pietro, Strange, I've not experienced anything like that. Which version have you installed, eric-cheng or simon-corecode-schubert ? I have installed the eric-cheng from the package I prepared - terminus-font.tar.gz.
