Monaco 10 is the only true code font :) That is, until I get myself a retina Mac, of course.

Then I'll use an undecided vector font and the last remaining piece of resistance from classic Mac will be gone.



That's painfully true. When I got my 13" retina mac, I literally couldn't decide on a terminal font for two weeks, switching them every few hours.

Nothing looked right. Nothing does even now, half a year later. Though personally, 12pt Monaco feels least "wrong".


So true! The only thing I dislike about my retina Mac is that Monaco 10 no longer looks right.


I moved to Inconsolata (with subpixel font smoothing):

Menlo is nicely tuned for retina displays.
