Does there exist a font better than Consolas?
Does there exist a font better than Consolas?
terminus
I've been using Hack for a while
Inconsolata, Fira Code...
DejaVu Sans Mono is the only valid answer.
Inconsolata.
vim in conemu using fixedsys
unifont, but unironically
>not DejaVu Sans Mono Slashed
kys
Source Code Pro
fpbp
Inconsolata-g is my favorite.
Fork of Inconsolata.
fira mono
dejavu sans mono
probably monaco too
Dejavu sans mono looks amazing without any aliasing too
Pragmata pro is patrician

I need some new fonts. I have terminus, scientifica and tewi and I also kinda like misc fixed. I also have a fixed sys clone font just because f my nostalgia for win 3.1.
holy shit, came here to say this. I really love consolas, but being forced to used terminus to install arch converted me.
Times new roman
Dayum son
I am gonna go and change my font to ptagmata pro
How dows one even read fonts like tewi, kakwafont and terminus on 1920x1080 resolution
I'm using IBM Plex Mono. Used to use Consolas and DejaVu Sans Mono.
I just want a tablet/e-ink you can write on pdfs AND epubs and that has pressure sensitivity.
Pic related suggestions?
IBM Plex is my font of choice now.
Have been using Fora and Iosevka before.
>anything but Brogrammer
Disgusting
Nova Mono.
Triplicate
Brogrammer sucks with SASS and html(with php), but very good with Javascript
Fixedsys forever (or courier) :^)
mononoki
madmalik.github.io
Beautiful
Spent an an hour trying to figure out how to import this font to qt... but to no avail
Not very dyslexia-friendly.
200$ for a fucking font. No, thanks.
Isn't there an Inconsolata-g with not-faggy g's? I really need to look into all the Inconsolata offshoots again. Anyway, Overpass is pretty clean and good for coding and GUI's.
P.S. Does anyone know what font Salix uses for the tty console? It's the only one I've really liked for that use case.
>not torrenting your fonts
If you can afford it then do it, I've tried many fonts for coding and this font has topped them all.
site:github.com "font name" in (((Google))) also works well.
IBM VGA8
Only good for dorfs.
Fixed Semicondensed, squashed vertically and with 1 px extra letter space.
>forced to use a specific font to install arch
what the fuck are you even doing?
Same
IBM Plex Mono is the future
this and only this
I like the overpass font family
/thread
menlo desu
Been trying forever, how do I get the tty fonts, and this font to work in urxvt or xterm?
That's actually not bad besides the periods, (semi)colons, and exclamation marks, which look like ass.
Why is this even a question?
Those all look fine to me, the bit that irks me about this is actually the the parentheses, and bar characters.
>using proprietary font
>That kerning on the i and l
Apercu Mono is the best looking one that I have ever seen
source code pro. something about it keeps making me switch back to it.
That does look nice. 47 quid though :/
Do they have a reduced charset trial version, like ASCII only or similar?
looks ni-
>these parentheses
nope
The only thing I don't get it how the fuck OTF version of IBM Plex Mono is inferior to the TTF variant?
>Screenshot
>JPEG
Pick one
>Uneven paranthesis
What the fuck
Why?
I hacked up my own variant of ProFont to get the exact combo of spacing and glyphs I wanted.
if :=+-~ is not vertically symmetric your font is shit
if ()[]{} are not the same height your font is shit
ProggyTTSZ
It looks too much like Comic Sans
ProggyTinyTTSZ.
I prefer slashed zero to dotted zero.
Nothing can beat Consolas
Font Awesome
used to use operator
now just use ibm plex desu
was plex the one with the literal worst website of all time?
By having 800x600
No seriously they have multiple sizes that should be acceptable on 1920x1080.
I dunno. It's pretty new.
THIS
looks pretty gay ngl
my eyes have become too shit for this 8(
i mean they had stiff competition with dropbox in the running
but yeah it was a weird announcement site
Amen
This, absolutely based.
Where do I get this?
>JavaScript
Triggered.
size 10 un-anti-alias'd courier new at smallest zoom before becoming ugly.
MS Gothic, my vt420's default font.
o shit fuck courier new this ones better
I dual boot Windows and Arch linux, and honestly prefer Consolas to Terminus. Terminus doesn't look so great when bigger than like 11pt
That's just my slightly modified version of Fixed Semicondensed, I haven't published it anywhere. But you can get Fixed Semicondensed (aka 6x13) here:
cl.cam.ac.uk
On Linux it's already preinstalled, you just need to enable bitmap fonts and use this as the font name:
-*-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed-*-13-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Then set your terminal emulator to add one pixel between each character. In URXVT that's
URxvt.letterSpace: 1
URxvt.lineSpace: 0
If you want less spacing between lines, set linespace to a negative number. There should be similar settings in other terminal emulators.
I honestly find comic sans nicest to read and work with
I hate the "r" on the mono version, but it's pretty good otherwise.
proprietary but nice
Input is pretty nice
input.fontbureau.com
I do my coding in comic sans. It makes me happy for some reason.
Just use profont you did damn children.
Try this laemeur.sdf.org
Topic was to point out fonts better than Consolas, not to find fonts suitable for subhumans.
Roboto is best fonto.
Times New Roman 12pt
PT Mono for me.
Noto Mono.
>programming fonts
I use comic sans with a red and yellow theme at work because it pisses everyone that walks by off
It's pretty good.
I wish I could use something like "tewi", but my 210 PPI display is too small for that.
Vertically centered asterisks and tildes are pretty cancerous.
>having this opinion
What is this color scheme called?
Hermit is a really nice font, imo.
