Font spacing bug in Konsole¶

Issue¶

The font spacing is weird in Konsole which affects the Terminal in Dolphin as well. The bug is easily noticeable as it sticks out like a sore thumb. Some symptoms are like - The cursor moves far righter than it is supposed to be, - Texts go out of alignment

It is known bug and the quick fix is to change to certain fonts which are unaffected with this bug, like Andale Mono, Courier, Courier New, DejaVu Sans Mono

Open konsole and then Settings -> Edit current profile -> Appearance. Change the font to DejaVu Sans Mono.
