@cogmodo I am a Courier Prime fanboi through and through. Courier New is garbage. Plain old Courier is fine. Courier Prime is life.

@lhauser that‘s so great! and i can see why. it still comes closest to that old typewriter feel and the prime variant does have some nice, elegant and curvy lines. i might add it to my list. courier definitely should be part of any list of monocspace fonts
