I personally like ProFont myself. What do you prefer? - Grant Gochnauer
I'm mostly using either Bitstream Vera Sans Mono (which was imho the most decent-looking font you could get in Java before the JDK learned to do ClearType) or Consolas. - yole
Droid Sans Mono / Monaco - Alexey Pegov
DejaVu Sans Mono and Consolas are the best of what I've tried. - 9000
I've tried those other fonts but I keep finding myself going back to ProFont. I use ProFont with no AA in IDEA with size: 9 and line spacing 1.0. All the other fonts are too big and if I make them smaller they get pixelated. I guess I like my fonts small :D - Grant Gochnauer
the page linked bitterly lacks a comparison of braces vs parens vs brackets, wherein lies my principal disagreement with Courier New, for instance. comma and dot, colon ad semicolon need to be compared, too. - 9000
