Usage on WSL results in console changing to Raster fonts

Opened this issue · 1 comments

I tried this on WSL and was pleasantly surprised to find it works (I was expecting it to fail complaining about being unable to open Chrome, or make a GUI call).

However, it seems to change the console to use Raster fonts - any ideas on what might be doing this?

AFAIK this problem only occurs in cmd.exe. So I think it is an upstream issue. It just worked before.

Maybe there is a workaround. That needs some investigation: which call causes the font to change?

Another workaround is stop using cmd.exe and use for instance the new Terminal (still in preview but I use it all the time without much problems).
