Hi tracer,

live) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote and made these points on the subject

That  was  what Alexander V. Kiselev (no longer with us) had to say on
the  topic  of  proportional  fonts. AFAIAC I use the Andale Mono font
(apparently available by download from M$) first commended by Klaus E.
Werner  on  this very list way back in June 1999 and I (and other long
term  users)  find  it  pretty  acceptable.  A  more compact but still
pleasant alternative is Lucida Console.
