If we wish to count lines of code, we should not regard them as *lines produced* but as *lines spent*. – Edsger Dijkstra

LGF Meetup

This is a great idea. Someone created an International LGF Meetup Day. If you're in the area (whatever area that happens to be) come on down! Smiley

New Proggy fonts

Hey, check out the new Proggy fonts. I've been using Proggy Square for a long time, and highly recommend it for programming. I just noticed he's come out with two new variations, Proggy Small and Proggy Tiny. I think Proggy Small and Tiny are too much even for me at 1600x1200, but I'm trying Proggy Tiny out to see if I can get used to it.

To give an example of why I like these fonts (besides the important fact that they distinguish between 1 (one), I (capital I) and l (lowercase L), and capital O and zero), given a full screen EditPlus window I fit 72 lines of code on the screen using Courier New. Using Proggy Square I fit 98, and using Proggy Tiny I fit 108.

See my ProgrammerFonts page for more.

Styling feeds

Ooh, I want to do this. Also see this.
