"Why are we forced to stick with a single fixed-width font" Not necessarily ;-) Since proportional fonts became available in programmers' editors, I've been using them. See http://www.michielovertoom.com/incoming/desksnap-20101013.png http://www.michielovertoom.com/incoming/desksnap-20101013.pn... for an example. Sublime also allows proportional fonts, whereas TextMate does not.
