Wow this generated a lot of responses :) Seeing as it's such a popular topic I feel compelled to throw my hat in the ring! My personal favourite used to be Monaco (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Monaco_%28typeface%29), but now I have migrated to Menlo and haven't looked back. Menlo is very easy to read on my 24" 1920x1200 at size "12", and comes in regular, bold, italic and bold+italic. FWIW, Menlo is another font based on the famous Bitstream Vera Sans Mono. You can see a comparison of Menlo vs DejaVu Sans Mono here: http://typophile.com/node/58625. Cheers, Gareth -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
