|---|---|---|
| cry0xen | whats the best terminal font | 16:19 |
| ogra | the one you can read best ? | 16:22 |
| Walex | I personally really like Ubuntu Mono, and the other Ubuntu fonts, they are well hinted. | 16:58 |
| Walex | Which matters for people who don't like anti-aliasing. | 16:58 |
| lotuspsychje | there's also an eyecandy side on fonts, the users choice aswell | 16:59 |
| Walex | sure, but legibility is less subjective than eyecandy | 17:00 |
| Walex | I am very grateful to Canonical for the Ubuntu font set, it is really good. | 17:01 |
| Walex | DejaVu Sans Mono is also good and well hinted. | 17:02 |
| cry0xen | i like ubuntu font set too. specially its a great combination with fira sans (firefox font) | 17:05 |
| Walex | Fira is nice but not as well hinted IIRC. | 17:07 |
| lotuspsychje | !info fontmatrix | 17:08 |
| ubottu | fontmatrix (0.9.100+ds-1, jammy): featureful personal font manager. In component universe, is optional. Built by fontmatrix. Size 1,455 kB / 3,444 kB | 17:08 |
| lotuspsychje | cool app^ | 17:08 |
| Walex | BTW a simple way to test a FontConfig font: xterm -fs 10 -fa 'Courier New' -e 'ls -l / && sleep 100' | 17:14 |

| Walex | to list all installe mono fonts: fc-list :spacing=mono family style | sort -u -df | 17:23 |
| Walex | to list all installed FontConfig mono fonts: fc-list :spacing=mono family style | sort -u -df | 17:23 |
| Walex | AH Firamono seems well hinted too, but it is only available in R and B styles. I prefer typefaces that have all four (R, I, B, BI) fonts. | 17:30 |
| Walex | These are the typefaces on my system that have the full set: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/KxqywvvxjQ/ | 17:37 |
| Walex | They are almost all variants of Courier... | 17:39 |
| Walex | Actually this is a more complete list, including the "Oblique" ones: fc-list :spacing=mono family style | sed 's/,.*//' | sort -u -df | grep 'Bold.[IO]' | 17:40 |
| Walex | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/t7Q6t3NNx9/ | 17:41 |
| Walex | Lucida Sans Typewriter is also nice. | 17:43 |
| cry0xen | what do you mean by hinted? | 19:24 |
| Bashing-om | UWN: Issue757 released to our public: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue757 :D | 20:17 |
