Consolas for everything.

Except for angry notes in the office. You are required by law to use Comic Sans for that! :doh:

5 x 3 pixels[^], what do you need more? 3 x 3[^] is a little too spartan, even for my taste.

I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

We have Windows 10 on a 24" wide screen so we need a font that is 64x96 at least! It would never do to have more than three words per screen!

Yay Consolas! ...although FixedSys is good sometimes.

Thanks for the links, always looking for fonts for embedded stuff and these are good!

Interesting. If the soapbox ever comes back, that should be the only font available.

My VS is set to use Consolas. The new MS terminal font doesn't look too bad: [Cascadia Code | Windows Command Line](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/cascadia-code/)

I'm a classicist: Monospace: Visual Studio: Consolas Everything else: Courier New Sans Serif: Arial Serif Blech. I hate serif'ed fonts.

Webdings, it has aliens, Spiderman, the Mona Lisa, race cars... I love those things in movies, so why not in fonts? ;)

I don't know, your samples all look pretty much the same to me. Oh, wait...you expect *me* to track them down to form an opinion?

[Greg Utas]

That 5x3 is a rather remarkable achievement. It could be improved by not bothering with differences between upper and lower case and disambiguating a few letters from numbers.

[PIEBALDconsult]

Consolas is filth.

[PIEBALDconsult]

I don't really care what my hammer looks like, it just has to do the job.

[Chris Maunder]

That's a beautiful font. A pity the EULA means it can't be used in web apps :(

cheers Chris Maunder
