Droid Sans Mono for Powerline is a patched version of the Droid Sans Mono font, specifically modified to include the extra glyphs required by Powerline. It provides developers with a clean, monospaced font that displays Powerline status line plugins and vim-airline symbols correctly.

Patched for seamless terminal and editor integration
Part of the extensive Powerline fonts collection

Use Cases:

Customizing terminal emulators (e.g., iTerm2, Terminal) with Powerline status lines
Enhancing code editors (e.g., Vim, Neovim) with vim-airline or similar status bar plugins
