Introducing Operator: H&Co.'s first monospace typeface
- glhaynes 11y agoWish it were possible to give it a try. They specifically point out usage in a text editor, but not too many developers are going to spend $199 without trying it in their editor first.
- WorldMaker 11y agoAlso, for that cost I'd love to see it include Fira Code-like ligatures.
- kalefranz 11y agoBeautiful font. Wish the pricing model weren't so stratospherically off just to use it in a text editor. "From" $199.
- elcct 11y agoTo me it looks like a candidate for Comic Sans of monospace fonts. Absolutely awful.
- FireBeyond 11y agoThe first feeling I got was "Papyrus Code". I see potential, and it's certainly better than anything I could do. I like H&Co's fonts but I'm not really feeling this. Right now, my terminal/code font of choice is Triplicate (http://practicaltypography.com/triplicate.html http://practicaltypography.com/triplicate.html).
- aaroninsf 11y agoThose lower case a's. ZOMG QUIRKY! Yep. And make me X it out. :(
- devrelm 11y agoIt's not even the a's. The random cursive letters would drive me mad.
- Analemma_ 11y ago"Absolutely awful" is stronger language than I would use, but yeah, I'm not feeling it. The 'a', 'c', parentheses, and especially the 's' remind me of lettering you'd see at a cheesy Greek restaurant. I didn't hate the cursive as much as the other replies here though, I think it could be a real benefit if your editor was configured correctly.
- nikdaheratik 11y agoUnderwhelmed for coding. May be useful for other monospace font needs and/or special use cases (like the Atom editor example on the site).
