Description
I tried steps from Setting up Emacs on Mac
Here is how my font.el looking https://gist.github.com/anildigital/def438e9ee400eb5b9b1865ab7c01484
I am able to see Fira Code applied. Thanks for that. But problem is that because of the let in which starts from line #8 in my https://gist.github.com/anildigital/def438e9ee400eb5b9b1865ab7c01484#file-font-el-L8
Whenever I open eshell it just hangs/freezes making Emacs process using 100% CPU.
Any fix for this?
Thank you

Research direction
Start with the “Setting up Emacs on Mac” instructions and inspect the font.el configuration in the linked gist, especially the let beginning around line 8. Reproduce the problem by opening eshell with that configuration and check which part causes the Emacs process to reach 100% CPU. Done means eshell opens without freezing and Emacs returns to normal CPU usage.
