I don't understand. Doesn't vertical pattern matching works the same for monospaced and proportional fonts? The same words are still the same size.

- ur-whale 8y ago>The same words are still the same size Try to properly vertically align code for a matrix containing expressions with X's and Y's in a non-monospaced font.
- ealhad 8y agoI see. That's kinda specific though, and not all code has matrices in it. But I get your point.
- ur-whale 8y ago> not all code has matrices in it It's not just matrices. An array of colors in hexadecimal is a good example of something that will make your eyeballs bleed with a non-monospaced font. I also tend to do matrix-style aligment with complex expressions that have repetitive patterns.
- ealhad 8y agoI see. I tried using a proportional font for ~15 minutes and didn't encounter these problems, I guess I'll try a bit longer and keep your point in mind.
