Me personally, I prefer light-on-dark, else the blinding white
background, even "light gray" instead of #FFFFFF, is just like staring
into the sun.  *That* gives me a headache...


>what fonts do you think are better for long hour sessions?

I tend to prefer plain ol' Lucida, but almost *all* fonts are only
really readable in bigger fontsizes, else smaller-size fonts end up
distorting characters, like '0's turning into rectangles (to distinguish
them from 'O's), indistinguishable directional squotes/dquotes and
"{([])}"s, '9' looking like a superscript 'g', etc.

Some of the "programming fonts" I've seen only come in certain sizes,
usually only in multiples (eg, 6pt, 12pt, 18pt), so if you don't like
the particular size closest to what you want, you usually gotta scale up
to something huge and bannerlike, or down to something microscopic and
unreadable.
