So assuming the OP has access to a truetype font like raw.githubusercontent.com/powerline/powerline/develop/font/… that has a glyphs for U+E0A0, how would they invoke/configure xterm so it renders characters using a generic font like DejaVu Sans Mono, but falls back to that PowelineSymbols font (assuming it's installed system-wide) for U+E0A0 (and other characters not covered by DejaVu but covered by that font)? Where can we find a specification for the format of the argument to -fa/faceName?

thank you. But the weird thing is, I am using the same font in terminator, and there it works.
