Fonts for coding [Ron Domingue]

Ron Domingue compared fonts used for programming such as Monaco, Inconsolata, Anonymous. In 2001, Mark Simonson designed Anonymous, a TrueType version of Anonymous 9, a freeware bitmap font developed in the mid-90s by Susan Lesch and David Lamkins. It was intended as a legible alternative to Monaco, the mono-spaced Macintosh system font. Raph Levien's monospaced programming font Inconsolata (2005) (see also here) is a relative of Franklin Gothic.
