#+TITLE: Fonts
* Intro
Being a programmer I spend a lot of time looking at text on my
computer. Mostly monospaced text. So I like to have something
nice to look at. This is a list of the fonts I've found and/or
tried and my opinion about them, these are not just facts so feel
free to disagree.
I'm currently using:
| Name | Size |
|--------+------------------------------|
| [[Monaco]] | 12 (or pixelsize=18 for XFT) |
* List
Here is the list of fonts I've found and/or tried.
** Monaco
This font has the most beautiful parentheses I've ever found
anywhere. Placing two together (like so ~()~) almost creates a
circle. I like this because I write quite a bit of lisp, and as
you may or may not know, lisp uses a lot of parentheses.
** osaka_unicode
This font is almost identical to [[Monaco]]. The only real
differences I've found is that is has a different ~a~ and that is
adds a space to each quote (at least double, but I think also
single).
