Description

UTF-8 art: https://mediagoblin.com/u/aleksej/m/utf-8-test-for-the-upgraded-mg-com/

Thumbnail: https://mediagoblin.com/mgoblin_media/media_entries/4f36eaecd1d13f16d40002b3/thumbnail.png

Before the detection fix, thumbnails were generated in the ISO-8859-x encoding even if the encoding was detected correctly.

I think this is because of Inconsolata's lack of coverage för unicode characters.

I'm dropping a link to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/586503/complete-monospaced-unicode-font here, I'm considering we switch to DejaVu Sans Mono.

It would probably be a good idea to make the font configurable while we're at it, the colors used to render the ASCII thumbnail should be configurable too.

The thumbnail font for ASCII art is now configurable.

I think we can close this case now that we have the option to configure the font used for thumbnail generation.
