As far as I've been able to tell, Courier New is more widely available than the others. Unfortunately, on Mac -- mine at least -- as compared with Courier, Courier New is annoyingly light, as in the opposite of bold; it looks pale when you put it beside text in other fonts. I ended up using an if-block to choose:

  if "Courier" is among the lines of the fontNames then
    put "Courier" into tNewMonoFont
  else
    put "Courier New" into tNewMonoFont
  end if
  . . .
  set the textFont of someStack to tNewMonoFont
  . . .

Assuming Courier is the only crossplatform monospaced font, which is the best to use for a crossplatform stack? There is Courier, Courier CE, and
Courier New; they all look similar to me. Thanks in advance.
