> Multibyte characters are 100% supported, but only if they are available in the chosen font. The fallback fonts feature will resolve this issue for you.

How do I enable this feature?

The characters  and ⑂ don't work in Menlo.

 and  do work in Cousine for Powerline font.

In Terminal.App and iTerm2 this works in both fonts. Do those applications also have a fallback fonts feature?

It's mentioned in the article as one of the yet-to-be-implemented features.

Thank you.

Is there a way to command the terminal to enter/exit full screen mode (like iTerm2 has)?
