Issue
My current setup is fish shell with hyper. The issue is hyper is not rendering the powerline fonts correctlly(renders just the boxes). I am using the Fira Code font.
But the same font is working fine under both the Terminal.app and iTerm.app.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in vanilla Hyper.app on macOS High Sierra with fish and the Fira Code font, then compare Powerline glyph rendering in Hyper with Terminal.app and iTerm.app. Done means the Powerline glyphs render correctly in Hyper without plugins.
