Interesting Programming Font: Inconsolata

This morning I was reading this article about favorite prgramming fonts, and I have to agree with the list. It's really amazing that the author and I have seemingly traveled the same font path from Monaco to Panic Sans to Consolas. But he had one I hadn't seen - a variant of Consolas (it appears) called Inconsolata. He likes it over Consolas because it's free, but I have to say, in addition to that little 'plus', the biggest difference I like about it is the native spacing. It always seemed to me that Consolas had a little too much line spacing. Inconsolata solves that problem.

So have a read and see what you think. You can download Inconsolata and try it. Worth the time.
