Why would you write prose in a monospaced font?
- steve_adams_86 6y agoIt’s in the article; sublime text doesn’t support bold or italic formatting of variable spaced fonts, and the author wants formatting so they’re stuck with monospaced until support is added.
- vlmutolo 6y agoMainly because people who use plain text editors come to love the editor and don't want to leave it when they write prose. But that editor is likely configured for monospace fonts, and it's easier not to change it.
