Consolas.

It just feels... clean for me.  Much better then whatever horrible font MS Notepad defaults to, anyways.

when I was in APCS, my teacher didn't taught us anything so we had to learn by ourselves XP
(Yeong got a score of 4 in AP test XP )

Out of? Also, I know people who use Microsoft Word to write CSS. Of course, now they use Notepad++ thanks to me :P
Highest possible is a 5.
That's very good :)

5 is great (I got this on a practice AP Exam we took for fun on the first day :P), 4 is very good, 3 is okay, 2 is meh (and gets you no college credit), 1 is rather despicable.

And Michael, MSNotePad is one of the only applications that comes with Windows that I really liked :P though of course, (Notepad++)++.

For Java, I use BlueJ sometimes and you can't change the font from whatever the default is...

But whenever I use Visual Studio, Netbeans or Eclipse, I have Cloister Black set as my font. It makes me feel special.

I though the AP Exam was fairly easy. I ended up scoring a 5.

Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

I use whatever monospaced font Visual Studio uses, or whatever program sets as default. Any good monospaced font is good for me. Why not the font you get when you lack a graphical interface (DOS' or Linux's default font in Ctrl-Alt-F1 mode). Or Fixedsys.

@FinaleTI: You, good sir, win the internet.

I am SO setting that my default coding font from now on ;D

Oh god, I suddenly have the urge to hand-craft code using a really fancy calligraphy pen on some parchment...

My favorite ide has always been notepad++ because of its compatibility with most porgramming languages and the ability to easily add others. I prefer to code on a black background and then notepad++ chooses a variety of fonts based off what i'm typing, so keywords are one font and comments may be another.

List of stuff I need to do before September:
1. Finish the Emulator of the Casio Prizm (in active development)
2. Finish the the SH3 asm IDE/assembler/linker program (in active development)
3. Create a partial Java virtual machine  for the Prizm (not started)
4. Create Axe for the Prizm with an Axe legacy mode (in planning phase)
5. Develop a large set of C and asm libraries for the Prizm (some progress)
6. Create an emulator of the 83+ for the Prizm (not started)
7. Create a well polished game that showcases the ability of the Casio Prizm (not started)

* Qwerty.55 wonders if he's the only one who doesn't pay attention to what font he uses...

All I know is that my papers use the AMS math fonts :P

FinaleTI, you would win the Internet if you used that font in a cool IDE, not Visual Studio :P

Either way, I also like dark background, but not black. My favourite theme on gedit is Oblivion (dark gray background).

What's wrong with VS?  For C# and VC it is quite the bomb, nothing can compare.

N++ isn't an IDE.

Hehe, how are you supposed to program with that type of font? :P  I bet if I used it within a text editor or an IDE I would be crazy by the end of the day of use.

If you think that's crazy, you should see the zStart font I made based off that font. ;)

It can be used as one though. There are several plugins that can turn it into an IDE. Actually, it works as a PHP IDE by default because you can send files using the FTP Client.

The problem with Visual Studio is that it encourages developers to make programs that work solely on Microsoft Windows. This is not necessarily a problem, but sometimes it is, because programmers lose clients if their programs are not supported by many platforms.

It technically *can* be used as an IDE, but the plugin system it provides is *very* weak and not many languages/compilers/interpreters/utilities are supported well.  Though I still use it solely for Text Editing and then compiling/testing manually with GCC, GHC, and YARV.
