Some characters, even though 6x13 seems to be capable of displaying them, simply do not show up after piping them to lemonbar. For example: (flower punctuation mark (U+2055)).

A quick search didn't bring up much, apart from this comment on reddit from 2015:

Lemonbar, in any version, is unable to handle utf-8 sequences with more than 3 bytes right now (\ufffd is used instead). I will look into writing a patch to fix that.

However, I believe the example above (flower punctuation mark) uses 3 bytes, so even if this issue still holds true, it shouldn't cause the behavior I'm seeing? Also, I'm not seeing the replacement character (\ufffd), I'm simply not seeing the piped glyph at all.

This needs further investigation to figure out what is going on and if the issue lies within succade, lemonbar, my font or something entirely else.
