Terminus font and urxvt
=======================
The Terminus fonts does not have the powerline glyths and unless someone submits a patch to
the font author, it is unlikely to happen. However, Andre Klärner came up with this work around:
In your ``~/.Xdefault`` file add the following:
``urxvt*font: xft:Terminus:pixelsize=12,xft:Inconsolata\ for\ Powerline:pixelsize=12``
This will allow urxvt to fallback onto the Inconsolata fonts in case it does not find the right
glyths within the terminus font.
