![vscode-before-letterspacing](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a26eab50-a92e-4a9d-b72f-bbdfcd8b7be7)
To fix this you need to set (in your settings):
- terminal.integrated.letterSpacing to 1
![vscode-settings-fix-incorrect-letterspacing](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1936c07a-f45b-4476-8d49-bd489ff9b9ae)

![vscode-after-letterspacing](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/dbd9e722-8503-45cd-aac3-c8fcc9fc2c1e)
_Note: VSCode also provides the option editor.letterSpacing which adjusts the spacing for the file editor._
