Hi Guys

When I look on Tutorials to do with coding, the people that created the tutorial often use Mac Computers. The Coding Font on that is sooo great !

Is there anyway I can get that exact font look on Windows ?

Thanks

This is the sort of font I'm after:

The most important things for a font to show code is
- Make a difference between 1 and lower case L and capital i; is Ill ill or 111 or III or lll depending on the font it may be confusing
- make . and ; and : show clearly (some fonts don't make these very bold but Courier New is better than most.

I use Courier New which is also a Mac font.

The font in the image is called Consolas. But another mono-spaced font, like courier, would give a similar effect.

Thanks Guys

That Consolas font is what I was after.

The default code view in Dreamweaver is all white and it hurts my eyes after 30 minutes of coding.

Has anyone edited the colours in their Dreamweaver so that Code View is dark like the screenshot above ? If so I'd greatly appreciate a copy of the [ Colors.xml ] file located in:

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\DreamweaverCS4\<language>\Configuration

I know you can do this manually but it takes such a long time to do it for each language. CSS, XHTML, PHP and Javascript.

I'd greatly appreciate any help. OR if you know of any other programs that have a Dark Code view as default ..that too would work.

Thank You.
