Description

According to the Textual FAQ the issues with the terminal characters can be solved by using the reccomended settings:
* FONT = Menlo
* STYLE = Regular
* Character Spacing = 1.0
* Line Spacing = 0.805

SOURCE: https://github.com/Textualize/textual/blob/main/docs/FAQ.md#why-doesnt-textual-look-good-on-macos

Unfortunately the config utility of a-Shell can only set the Font family, not Character Spacing or Line Spacing.
Is it possible to add those two settings?

HOW TO REPRODUCE THE BUG
Here is a zip file with two small python scripts you can use to test the characters issues on a-Shell:

[test_code_textual_characters_issues.zip](https://github.com/holzschu/a-shell/files/12481060/test_code_textual_characters_issues.zip)

Of course you also need to install the Textual package:
