<p>Geany has no control of ligatures, because it just writes the bytes <code>f</code> and <code>i</code> and its hidden in the GTK text widget and the font how its displayed.</p>
<p>Note the font says <code>fi</code> ligature fixed (see <a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Share+Tech+Mono" rel="nofollow">here</a>), are you sure that wherever you "came across" it has the latest?</p>
<p>Possibly changing your locale to <code>C</code> might fix it, or maybe GTK3 will fix it when the next windows release happens "soon", but really nothing should be ligating? (is that a word) in a monospace font, ligatures are inherently non-monospace.</p>
