What font do you use when writing code?
Specifically, this font should be:
I currently use Lucida Typewriter, Bold, Size 12.
I like Consolas a lot. This top-10 list is a good resource for others. It includes examples and descriptions.
Funny, I was just researching this yesterday!
I personally use Monaco 10 or 11 for the Mac, but a good cross platform font would have to be Droid Sans Mono: http://damieng.com/blog/2007/11/14/droid-sans-mono-great-coding-font Or DejaVu sans mono is another great one (goes under a lot of different names, will be Menlo on SNow leopard and is really just a repackaged Prima/Vera) check it out here: Prima/Vera...

Inconsolata (http://www.levien.com/type/myfonts/inconsolata.html) is a great monospaced font for programming. Earlier versions tend to act weird on OS X, but the newer versions work out very well.
