Consolas on Windows 7 indeed is much improved.
Liberation Mono should get a mention too. It is hinted for the
small font sizes, great for those who prefer old-style crisp
hinted glyphs. I use it on mintty for Cygwin.
How do you get mintty to see Liberation Mono? I downloaded the
family from redhat, installed it on my w7-x64 machine, made sure
it was set to 'show,' and started a fresh mintty, but it still
can't find the font. Even unchecking 'hide fonts based on language
settings' in 'font settings' didn't help (made a lot of other
fonts appear, tho).
Sorry, I'm on XP, did it the traditional
copy-and-paste-in-Explorer way. Perhaps someone else has tried it
on Win7...
