The proggy fonts are a set of fixed-width screen fonts that are designed for code listings. They are distributed in Microsoft’s .fon format, the truetype (ttf) format, as well as XWindows (Linux/BSD…) pcf format. The .fon format works well with MS Visual Studio, a command prompt, Photoshop, etc. Some editors do not recognize .fon fonts, in which case you should use the ttf version (12pt PC, 16pt Mac).

 

Each font only comes in one size that it looks good at. The ttf fonts should also be used at their intended point size as they are basically conversions of the pixel based bitmap versions. The fonts were optimized while coding in C or C++… for this reason, characters like the ‘*’ were placed vertically centered, as ‘*’ usually means dereference or multiply, but never ‘to the power of’ like in Fortran.
