Charles Moore was once criticized for this and he pointed out you could just use font instead I think.
Keep in mind he generally builds these things for himself based off of his own needs. I can't remember if this is default for the GreenArrays chips though, so perhaps that doesn't hold in all situations.

I think that would be terrible too but people seem to love their fancy fonts, italics and ligatures, at least in the JS world, like here https://miro.medium.com/max/1200/1*hE_nLB776KUDXPERE_3cXw.png https://miro.medium.com/max/1200/1*hE_nLB776KUDXPERE_3cXw.pn.... I honestly don't see the point and find it harder to read but to each their own. > Keep in mind he generally builds these things for himself based off of his own needs. I can't remember if this is default for the GreenArrays chips though, so perhaps that doesn't hold in all situations. This was more of a general comment about the idea.
- 7thaccount 5y agoAh gotcha. I recalled someone getting upset about it being difficult for those reading code via braille (iirc) or maybe they weren't upset, but were just asking about it lol.
- Zababa 5y agoOh no I'm not upset at all, in a way I find the idea very cool, adding a dimension to code with a visual indicator is a great idea. But as someone that would be badly affected by it, I'm glad it's not done.
- 7thaccount 5y agoTotally understandable. My father is color blind too (particularly red/green), so I totally get that. I just dumbly assumed the comment was because you were bent out of shape as 90% of the internet seems to be these days :). My apologies.
- Zababa 5y agoNo worries!
- daniel-cussen 5y agoWell so it as a matter of fact was designed for people with poor vision.
