`nnn` supports mutliple ways to show icons. They are turned off by default and are not provided in the default distribution to avoid shipping third party resources. Currently we support [icons-in-terminal](https://github.com/sebastiencs/icons-in-terminal) for those wishing to use icons alongside a normal code font. Alternatively, you can utilize Nerdfont's patched fonts to add icons to the font itself. The later is more common for Vim users who need fonts for various powerline plugins. Regardless of the method, each method will produce similar experiences within nnn. `nnn` supports mutliple ways to show icons.
