#### A symbol in the statusline looks is overdrawn or too crammed
This is typically an issue with your terminal which does not correctly draw the symbol. You can configure other symbols, please check the [Documentation](https://github.com/vim-airline/vim-airline/blob/ebb89a0846ff8b8bc64579155d661b825f97d3f2/doc/airline.txt#L369-L389). You can check how it looks like in your terminal using the following command:
```vim
for i in items(g:airline_symbols)|echo i[0] .. ':-'.. i[1] .. '-'|endfor
```
If any of the symbols does not look right, you can configure it in your `.vimrc` like this, in this case changing the `colnr` indicator:
```vim
if !exists('g:airline_symbols')
let g:airline_symbols = {}
endif
let g:airline_symbols.colnr = ' ℅:'
```
