Re: [Pharo-project] New Pharo based on core 10309 with antialiased fonts

I agree with Lukas, Bill, and Simon (that is, to change the default font to DejaVu Sans).

[Pharo-project] Toolsets?

by Simon Denier

What is the best way to customize my own toolset? Create a subclass of StandardToolset? BTW, where can I find a comparison between the three existing toolsets? (standard, dev, OT) -- Simon

Lukas, I agree about about sans serif, and for code, even prefer a mono-spaced font. However, I believe there is a code snipet somewhere that changes the fonts to whatever is desired.

That looks great, though I would prefer a sans-serif font (DejaVu Sans) instead of a serif font (DejaVu Serif) in the UI. Serif fonts add too much noise on the screen and are typically used in print only, not in user interfaces.

Re: [Pharo-project] New Pharo based on core 10309 with antialiased fonts

by Adrian Lienhard

Thanks, Damien! Note, on Mac, the VM "Squeak 4.1.1beta2U" does not contain the new BitBlt plugin and hence the fonts are rendered without subpixel antialiasing. To enable this, drop the attached file (this is from the prototype one-click-image that Marcus produced some time ago) in the Resources folder in the VM app. John, could this be included by default in the VMs you ship?
