I like Source Code Pro, but it lacks italics. That's really the only downside to me.
I love Monaco also, but only unaliased at about 10pt. Otherwise, I use Menlo or DejaVu Sans Mono usually.
I've known about Anonymous Pro, but have not given it much usage yet to decide if I like it more than others.
- buro9 13y agoStrange, I'm seeing italics in Sublime Text 3 for Source Code Pro. You're right that the font seems to lack italics, anyone know whether this is just Sublime faking it?
- icebraining 13y agoI think the font rendering engines (e.g. FreeType) can do fake italics by slating the characters.
- b3b0p 13y agoYes, as you stated it's basically Sublime slanting the characters. Here is the ticket on Github: https://github.com/adobe/source-code-pro/issues/6 https://github.com/adobe/source-code-pro/issues/6
- doktorn 13y agoWhat would you use italics for in programming? I've never used italics, maybe I'm missing something.
