[NF] Console fonts

Author: Ted Roche

Posted: 2016-01-18 09:49:24   Link

A cute little site for playing around with color themes and console fonts.

The O'Reilly newsletters says, "Like a new pair of shoes!"

http://app.programmingfonts.org/

I spend a lot of time in Linux consoles and vim, and really appreciate

Solarized Dark and SourceCodePro, though I see a couple others worth

checking out.

Note that you can type in the simulated console, which is important if

you're checking out key characters like zero.

Well, isn't that special.

https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/app.programmingfonts.org/ reports

no problems.

I have most ads blocked in my hosts file, so if it's in there I'm not seeing it.

Do your alarms provide any more details?I'd report them to webmaster.

I've walked through the code on the site, and it looks okay to me (as

much as you can guess a minimized jQuery files looks "okay"), Site

owner Koen Lageveen tells me he's heard reports of web fonts being

reported as malware before.

If your software provided any details on what the threat consisted of,

I'll be glad to forward your info.

It appears that one of the fonts, Quinze, was generating the false positives.

Mike and/or Laurie, if you could check to see if the site doesn't

alarm on your machines, I'd appreciate it and pass that on to the site

author.

UPDATE: Site now displays for me without issue, Ted. Looks like they've

fixed whatever it was.

I've been using SourceCodePro ever since you posted about it awhile

back.

I'm not a fan of the dark backgrounds. I find the off-white background

to be the easiest on my eyes, I think, especially as I (and the rest of

us!) get older. The dark/black backgrounds were what you had back in

the mainframe programming days and green-screens, but I think they're

harder on the eyes. Isn't there some documentation as to that somewhere

too? Who knows...maybe I'll go back to that on Flashback Fridays so as

to feel a bit young again. lol
