Emacs powerline not displaying arrow

I am trying to configure emacs powerline, after trying multiple times, i still can't get it working correctly as shown in the figure below.

enter image description here

It seems to me that some font is missing in my system, but i don't know which one. I am using Mac El Capitan, the emacs version is 24.5.1.

Solution

  • try use following command

    # clone
git clone https://github.com/powerline/fonts.git
# install
cd fonts
./install.sh
# clean-up a bit
cd ..
rm -rf fonts

    You may need to manually select your favorite powerline font
