Monospaced Programming Fonts
Posted on January 21st, 2005 by pruett32
Every once in a while I get the urge to do some programming. These days my programming seems to be limited to PHP/MySQL web pages, but once in a while I like to write a quick windows utility to keep my skills up.
I’m thinking of writing an XMLRPC Blog client that takes advantage of Blogging platforms which support the MovableType and Blogger APIs.
In either case, good programming fonts are a must when using a code editor. There’s nothing worse than confusing a 0 with an O. Or an l with a 1.
I’ve been partial to Andale Mono for some time now, but I’m going to try Bitstream Vera Sans Mono to see what all the fuss is about.
