Specifically 0x2500 and 0x2502 is using BatangChe instead. This misaligns the \"Important Notes\" section of the Spacemacs start screen:\r\n![capture](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/10060520/7336565/22363d9c-ec05-11e4-9f14-e41e89d363da.PNG)\r\nThe corners (0x256D, 0x256E, 0x256F, 0x2570) are using Source Code Pro.\r\n\r\nIn general, the range 0x25xx is a (random?) mix of Source Code Pro, BatangChe and Gothic, but I can get around this by specifically asking Emacs to prioritise Source Code Pro for that range:\r\n\r\n    (set-fontset-font t '(#x2500 . #x25FF) \"Source Code Pro\")\r\n\r\nHowever, I know almost nothing about how Emacs handles fonts and fallback fonts, so there is probably a more correct way to handle this?"}}
