Sorry for my quite dumb question. I realized that I had convinced myself that oblique was already included in Inconsolata but not available in Emacs. Further checking showed this was not the case (the original bugreport was a bit misleading). I prefer not to start using hacks to get fake oblique... > BTW, I find Inconsolata good for high-resolution devices (e.g., > print), but the blurry (and even colored) shapes make my eyes hurt. I am not entierely conviced myself, but as Terminus, which I prefer, doesn't have a good-quality oblique, I have looked at alternatives. After getting your answer, I made some tests with DejaVu Sans Mono (quite good) and Anonymous Pro (surprising at first, but quite usable).
