Description of the new feature/enhancement

My shell profiles lean heavily upon powerline and nerd fonts. The new font is.... ok, I guess, but it doesn't support my symbols. I'd like to be able to change the font-family to use my own font.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Add a field to settings.json to allow one to specify the font-family.
