<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: trebuchet

instructions on Github but still see the problem. After
setting the system font to CompterModernSans, I opened a
browser on Date>>printFormat: and can see both the left
arrow and the up arrow still look like boxes with x's in them.
So, is it necessary for me to clone the repo to see the
changes?</div>

After starting the image, and prior to changing the font, you need
to World / Changes... / Install New Updates . In particular you need
update #4572. Check your Transcript.<br>
<br>
We publish updates frequently, but only push updated images once in
a while.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

I guess you are looking for<br>
Preferences enable:
#syntaxHighlightingAsYouTypeAnsiAssignment.<br>
and<br>
Preferences enable:
#syntaxHighlightingAsYouTypeLeftArrowAssignment.<br>
(enable only one of them at a time)<br>
<br>
#useLeftArrow and #useAlwaysLeftArrow seem useless to me. I
think we'd just remove them.<br>

wrong, I wouldn't mind if the left and up arrows
were always dynamically inserted by default when I
type ^ or :=, but not until all the supported fonts
can render them properly. That would be my feedback.
Until then the default should be ^ for returning a
value, and := for assignment.</div>

Today I pushed a commit to take the Unicode Arrow glyphs
from DejaVu if the selected font doesn't include them.
Assignment and returns should look well in any font.<br>
<br>
Some clarifications:<br>
- There are no specifically "supported fonts". You can use
any TrueType font you like. We include a few with Cuis for
convenience. You can add others. Different TrueType fonts
will vary in the range of glyphs they include.<br>
- We always use Character 94 for return ( ^ in the
keyboard). We just display it as an up arrow when it is a
return (but not when it is used a a binary selector, or in a
comment).<br>
- You can use := or left arrow ( _ in the keyboard) for
assignment. Your choice. We display _ as a left arrow when
it is used for assignment (but not when it is used as part
of a variable name or selector, or in a comment).<br>

<div dir="ltr">The SVG support is a big deal and I'm
interested in exploring what I can do with Cuis as
an alternative, but for most application needs Pharo
and Cincom, as "top heavy" as they are, still seem
most suitable for actual application development.
Gemstone is also great. In general I am always
struggling with which to use for what purpose.<br
