Ever since the beginning of my college CS Major till now (my junior year) I've been using the font "Courier New" until not long ago where I realized it's a font that brings hell on my eyes. What is your preferred font to use while you program? I'm trying to find one that won't confuse me to insanity when trying to read code thousands of lines long!   | ||

He's talking about monospaced fonts, as in fonts where every character has the same width, as in the ones you use to code. Try Consolas. It comes standard with Vista and you can download it easily. I think that one is a pretty popular replacement for Courier New. Oh, and only use Consolas if you have anti-alias on since it's designed for that. Else it's not that good. | ||

Another good one IMO is Lucida Console. edit: Also looking through my fonts, Inconsolata is a good monospace font. | ||

I use 'crisp' ie not too bold, relatively large settings and colour schemes with a light, almost white background that have enough contrast on all the highlighting in a well lit room. For some people dark backgrounds work better though. | ||
