    You found the Achilles' heel of my project! I don't mind the fonts being different sizes or not monospaced, but the fact that there's a difference in height in the font rendering between ⎺ and ‾ on different platforms is a bummer. I have a flag in the C++ implementation so they can still be rendered "correctly" in IDEs like Xcode [1].

    I felt doomed to Unicode in this case because of the number of places I wanted them to show up (CLion lldb integration, GitHub actions output, terminal). I would have loved to actually render graphics! I actually never thought about how they would render on a blog article, I wouldn't generally wouldn't use them for blogging...

    Nice! I became obsessed with rendering sparkline representations of chunks of audio for the same reason: to inspect failures when writing tests / refactoring. https://github.com/sudara/melatonin_audio_sparklines

    I was inspired by your work to do a juce implementation: https://github.com/FigBug/Gin/commit/30aa84130f4f607bdeba538b9c6c28b2dfa971bc

    I think the most useful thing for me is I can call it from lldb and immediately dump buffers to my terminal while debugging.
