How can I get this shape of `i`

I find recursive font in someone's code image. The font is so wonderful. But in his picture his shape of i is different with the default and the ss04. How can I get the shape of i.
This is the picture:
Hey @Lengdrich, thanks for the kind words!
Judging by the i l r f shapes, my guess is they might be using the Recursive Variable font in an app that doesn't support the rvrn OpenType feature, which is what changes shapes from the MONO=0 styles ("sans") to MONO=1 ("mono") styles.
I haven't tested this, but you could probably use Recursive Code Config project and turn off rvrn along with the other feature adjustments.
To be more specific, in https://github.com/arrowtype/recursive-code-config, you could clone the repo, then adjust the Python script to do this.
You would edit this line:
To remove rvrn, from the feature freeze args, like this:
- # freeze in rvrn & stylistic set features with pyftfeatfreeze
- pyftfeatfreeze.main([f"--features=rvrn,{','.join(fontOptions['Features'])}", outputPath, outputPath])
+ # freeze in rvrn=OFF & stylistic set features with pyftfeatfreeze
+ pyftfeatfreeze.main([f"--features={','.join(fontOptions['Features'])}", outputPath, outputPath])
And then run the rest of your config. I haven't tried this, but I think it should work!
