Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think this is in scope of ironbar (outside the docs), since it doesn't handle fonts beyond loading the CSS styles.

I'll look to see if/how this affects the examples and update those.

If you update your fonts you will see this too, problem is with the defaults

Ah of course, I forgot there are chars coded into the defaults 🤦 I'm with you now

Think that's got 'em. From memory / a quick search I don't think there are any outside of the music module, and nerdfix didn't find anything else. Let me know if you know there's anything I've missed
