This will allow urxvt to fallback onto the Inconsolata fonts in case it does not find the right
glyths within the terminus font.
Source Code Pro font and urxvt
==============================
Much like the terminus font that was mentioned above, a similar fix can be applied to the Source Code Pro fonts.
In the ``~/.Xdefaults`` add the following:
``URxvt*font: xft:Source\ Code\ Pro\ Medium:pixelsize=13:antialias=true:hinting=true,xft:Source\ Code\ Pro\ Medium:pixelsize=13:antialias=true:hinting=true``
I noticed that Source Code Pro has the glyphs there already, but the pixel size of the fonts play a role in whether or not
the > or the < separators showing up or not. Using font size 12, glyphs on the right hand side of the powerline are present,
but the ones on the left don't. Pixel size 14, brings the reverse problem. Font size 13 seems to work just fine.
