[ad#content2]There have been tonnes of debates over which font is the best for programming. Everyone has their preference. My current preference is TheSans Condensed Mono by LucasFonts.
The font is used in all of O’Reilly’s programming books, and that’s how I originally found out about it. It has got all the attributes of a great programming font – it’s monospaced, and characters which are normally similar in appearance (O, and 0) are easy to tell apart. Most importantly of all, it’s stunning. It’s a beautiful font to code in. Nevertheless, it is a little pricey. For some free alternatives, check out these resources.
I’m a little notorius for being picky about the programming font I use. For example, the reason I don’t use Consolas is because its semi-colon looks ugly. If you’ve got the same picky nature as me, TheSans Condensed Mono might be the font for you.
