Consolas字体并不完美

一篇国外博文《Finding the Best Programmer's Font》中，作者指出一个理想的编码字体应具备以下要素：

• Crisp clear characters.
• Extended characterset.
• Good use of whitespace.
• 'l', '1' and 'i' are easily distinguished
• '0', 'o' and 'O' are easily distinguished
• forward quotes from back quotes are easily distinguished -prefer mirrored appearance
• Clear punctuation characters, especially braces, parenthesis and brackets

作为编码最常用的字体之一，Consolas字体非常受欢迎。但它的双下划线是连在一起的。

尽管如今的编码规范已基本摒弃了双下划线，不过这仍可视为Consolas的美中不足。
