About

TeX Gyre Cursor is a monospaced font family based on URW Nimbus Mono L. The GUST project describes it as a possible replacement for the Courier typeface. This Homebrew cask installs four OpenType font files: regular, italic, bold, and bold italic. The GUST project also describes broader TeX-oriented materials for the family, but those are not included in this cask’s font-file set.

  • Includes regular and italic styles, plus bold and bold italic.
  • Provides OpenType files for use by applications that support installed fonts.
  • The upstream project notes that Vietnamese glyphs were added.

Install with brew install --cask font-tex-gyre-cursor. After installation, select the installed TeX Gyre Cursor style you want in a compatible application’s font settings. Installing this cask adds fonts; it does not install a separate application. The listed files establish which styles are supplied, but do not establish full Unicode coverage or ligature support.
