           Non-Proportional font
Netters,
   In writing text materials for computing science, I like to present
programs in a non-proportional font.  Courier looks terrible, however, and I
have not seen anthing that looks much better.  (I like Bookman for the main
text, BTW.) The font should have a good distinguished bold and be very
legible.  It must be available for the Macintosh.  What are your
recommendations?  Please let me know whether your suggestion is:
(1) in Type 1 or TrueType
(2) general characteristics (serif, sans-serif, narrow or ??)
(3) commercial, freeware, or shareware (how much where applicable)
(4) where available
   If I get more than two or three replies, I will summarize back to the net
as well as to all those who write.
