Howdy guys! Just like most of you, I have been in a never ending quest to find the perfect font and the color theme. Did you guys ever find what you were looking for?

I can't say I'm 100% satisfied with what I have right now, But I am very happy with the current font I am using. You can see it in the picture. It's called 'Grey beard'. The color theme is 'Sonokai'.

If you guys used bitmap fonts as well, what are your favorite color themes? Even if you don't use bitmap fonts do you have any good suggestions?

Thank you! And have a wonderful day!

I'd say I prefer the flexibility of vector fonts. It costs money, but my favorite font is Cartograph CF. I chose it because of the combination of a cursive-style italic variant, and programming ligatures.

Another font that has both of those features rendered with a different style is Victor Mono. The cursive text in Victor is semi-connected which I enjoy. This one is free, but the author accepts donations to support the work.

I have heard good things about Cartograph. For a good font I would say spending some money is a good investment. Victor Mono was not my cup of tea though. Thank you for the suggestions!
