Which color theme do you use for IDE ?
I use modified monokai with Consolas Font.
I personally prefer dark backgrounds , and after years of utilisation in MS VS, Consolas is definitely my prefered font for coding ....

    I use a white background and f.lux.  Currently trying Source Code Pro as font, and rather liking it.

    I prefer dark background themes as in the posted image.  I tend to use variations on popular themes such as Solarized Dark, Monokai, etc., but I try to keep it consistant across all of my IDEs and text editors.  Not always easy across Mac/Win/Linux.

    I think there was a lengthy font discussion here not too long ago.  Fixed width fonts that I prefer are: Dina, Andale Mono, Consolas, Adobe Source Code Pro Light, and DejaVu Sans Mono.

    As long as you don't use Italics - it is ok.  Italics have alignment issues, Olivier SCHWAB.

    I use a slightly grey background color, not quite clSilver, with Consolas.

    A darkened son of obsidian (almost completely black background) with Adobe Source Code Pro as my font. And ever since I found a tool to export my Visual Studio colors to SQL Server Management Studio, life has been good. I also love how LinqPad manages its palette automatically too, all I have to do is make the background dark.

    Lars Fosdal What problems are you having with Source Code Pro and italics?

    I've had the cursor visually position itself on the left side of the last character, instead of the right side - when the cursor definitively was placed behind the character.

    I'll have to look for the same artifact. Are you sure it's up to date? I think Adobe has updated it at least once.
