Hi. This is a very nice font. I am trying to set Retina version in vscode and I am setting "Monoid Retina" as "editor.fontFamily" value but It isn't working. Please help me. Thanks
OS: linux, Editor: vscode

Update :
After listing installed fonts my machine, If you noticed all of theme has same name but different style and I think in this case editor can not pick the correct font based on font's name :
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/monoid/Monoid-Italic.ttf: Monoid:style=Italic /usr/share/fonts/truetype/monoid/Monoid-Retina.ttf: Monoid:style=Retina /usr/share/fonts/truetype/monoid/Monoid-Bold.ttf: Monoid:style=Bold /usr/share/fonts/truetype/monoid/Monoid-Regular.ttf: Monoid:style=Regular

But If you look at firacode font configuration in my machine there are different names for every specific font:
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/firacode/FiraCode-Bold.ttf: Fira Code:style=Bold /usr/share/fonts/truetype/firacode/FiraCode-SemiBold.ttf: Fira Code,Fira Code SemiBold:style=SemiBold,Regular /usr/share/fonts/truetype/firacode/FiraCode-Retina.ttf: Fira Code,Fira Code Retina:style=Retina,Regular /usr/share/fonts/truetype/firacode/FiraCode-Medium.ttf: Fira Code,Fira Code Medium:style=Medium,Regular /usr/share/fonts/truetype/firacode/FiraCode-Regular.ttf: Fira Code:style=Regular /usr/share/fonts/truetype/firacode/FiraCode-Light.ttf: Fira Code,Fira Code Light:style=Light,Regular

So for example If I want to set firacode font with retina style, I just use "Fira Code Retina" name. So The question is how to set Retina style for Monoid font?
