That's fantastic. I keep meaning to polish it up a little bit, but with a few additional macOS tweaks I've got it in the "works for me" state, and I didn't think it was in heavy usage, so I didn't really prioritize it. Any other macos fixes are definitely welcome! |

Sorry I didn't merge this earlier. I checked it out and meant to merge, but I guess I forgot |

This PR fixes an issue where the default monospaced font renders poorly on macOS.
The previous logic relied on GNOME GSettings, which isn't available on macOS, causing it to use a messy fallback font. This change adds a check to detect if the OS is macOS (
Darwin) and sets a better, platform-specific default font ("Menlo").See the comparison below.
