Hi guys,

no idea if you're still using the default font when coding, but if you do, I recommend that you take a look at Envy-Code (http://damieng.com/blog/2008/05/26/envy-code-r-preview-7-coding-font-released) which is pretty nice. And if you look at code for quite some time per day, the code should look nice, right?

I don't know, I tried it and for some reason it just wasn't working with my eyes. Guess I'm too used to Monaco

I suppose though, but some fancy font is just going to ruin your concentration.

What's wrong with the default one? I'm happy with it.

There's nothing wrong with it per-se. And if you like the default font, use it.

Just wanted to provide some options. I found this font via the site that also had the "typography of code" article: http://blog.hamstu.com/2008/02/03/the-typography-of-code/

I am browsing a lot of typography/ design related sites lately - and after finding the font, I thought I should share :)

You piqued my interest, so I took a look around the google neighborhood and found Anonymous (http://www.ms-studio.com/FontSales/anonymous.html). Not sure if I'll stick with it, but at least it's a change of pace for the ole eyes.
