I really like this, and while I wouldn't code in just any font, this one seems to lend itself. Only nitpick would be breathing room around parentheses and "." in method calls. Right now it's a bit tight. Love this article though, definitely some cool stuff going on in this space.

That's really nice. Reminds me of the same kinds of things that LightTable has been trying to accomplish.

I believe LightTable uses monospace fonts.

This made me laugh. But... just in case you were being serious, I wasn't commenting on the fonts but the project in general.

The context of the thread was on fonts, the other stuff has been covered :)

Its been fun getting font metrics working right (given a custom editor) and getting key-up and key down to work correctly, but overall, I think this is the future, especially in richer editing environments.
