  1. Finding a Good Monospace Font For Prose

    Unlike Ben Tsai, I have never been an engineer. But like Ben Tsai, I "appreciate the feel of a monospaced font, [and] want something that is optimized for prose." In my case, I write drafts (and law stuff for my day job) in KDE's Ghostwriter and prefer monospace fonts while writing in markdown. Many of the monospace options out there are more for terminals and code than prose. I have used and like the iA Writer fonts, which he references in his post. I also agree that I am not looking for a […]

  7. J'ai souvent hésité à utiliser l'e dans l'o, pas parce ce que c'est difficile à taper (un simple AltGr + o suffit sous #linux) mais parce que les polices de caractères #monospace utilisées jusqu'à présent le rendaient assez mal.

    Si je garde le monospace pour le #development, je suis passé à la police #Adwaita sans-serif de #Gnome pour la rédaction de texte. Elle a des ligatures très lisibles et agréable à utiliser !

  9. JuliaMono [1] is a very nice font. I’m also partial to Berkeley Mono [2] and Input Mono [3] for my source code authoring. I always use Iosevka [4] for my terminal font.

  14. JetBrains vs custom font issue

    I usally use a retro font called "MxPlusIBMVGA9x16". Childhood nostalgy. I can use it anywhere but in JetBrains terminals. It is not listed as monospace font in the reworked terminal's menu. It is listed as monospace editor font though. 🤷

    I dissected the font with FontForge and with Python's fonttools lib too. Panose table, isFixedPitch are in order. What should I look for to fix?

  19. Interesting effect, I'm guessing that the typographer chose the application of bold and normal. It looks like a monospaced font. The very thin joins, or even gaps, in the strokes that are meeting the horizontal, or vertical, at an angle work well for me to add a sense of 'mechnicalness' (N, Z)
