Hello,
Documentation says:
i3bar supports Pango markup, allowing your format strings to specify font, color, size, etc. by setting the markup directive to "pango".
It took me a while to understand that the way to set up markup was to do
general {
colors = true
interval = 5
markup = "pango"
}
I think it could make sense to add markup = "pango" in the Sample configuration like it seems to be done for others settings.
I can send a PR, if agreed
