### Advanced Font Shaping Options
The `harfbuzz_features` option allows specifying the features to enable when
using harfbuzz for font shaping.
There is some light documentation here:
<https://harfbuzz.github.io/shaping-opentype-features.html>
but it boils down to allowing opentype feature names to be specified
using syntax similar to the CSS font-feature-settings options:
<https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/font-feature-settings>.
The OpenType spec lists a number of features here:
<https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/featurelist>
Options of likely interest will be:
* `calt` - <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/features_ae#tag-calt>
* `clig` - <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/features_ae#tag-clig>
If you want to disable ligatures in most fonts, then you may want to
use a setting like this:
```lua
config.harfbuzz_features = { 'calt=0', 'clig=0', 'liga=0' }
```
Some fonts make available extended options via stylistic sets.
If you use the [Fira Code font](https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode),
it lists available stylistic sets here:
<https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode/wiki/How-to-enable-stylistic-sets>
and you can set them in wezterm:
```lua
-- Use this for a zero with a dot rather than a line through it
-- when using the Fira Code font
config.harfbuzz_features = { 'zero' }
```
{{since('20220101-133340-7edc5b5a')}}
You can specify `harfbuzz_features` on a per-font basis, rather than
globally for all fonts:
```lua
config.font = wezterm.font {
family = 'JetBrains Mono',
harfbuzz_features = { 'calt=0', 'clig=0', 'liga=0' },
}
```
and this example disables ligatures for JetBrains Mono,
but keeps the default for the other fonts in the fallback:
```lua
config.font = wezterm.font_with_fallback {
{
family = 'JetBrains Mono',
weight = 'Medium',
harfbuzz_features = { 'calt=0', 'clig=0', 'liga=0' },
},
{ family = 'Terminus', weight = 'Bold' },
'Noto Color Emoji',
}
```
