How much time do you spend reading or editing code in a terminal session? You could grab yourself a descent programmer's font and use it in your terminal sessions. With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday' Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice. The start of some sanity?	[reply]

How much time do you spend reading or editing code in a terminal session? 100% of time descent programmer's font I find terminus quite decent. And I don't think that requirement to use font that have tilde in the middle of the line in order to read the code is reasonable.	[reply]

I don't see why: `~ ~ ~ > is any less acceptable than = or $bool &= $mask;` [download] With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday' Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

I dont find not using the most intuitive (to me) option just because your font doesn't display it well to be reasonable either. ;-)	[reply]
