New Tag Request: Equal Spaced Font (Courier New)

Thread starter Hurkyl
Start date Jan 4, 2005

In summary, the new tag "Equal Spaced Font (Courier New)" is designed to provide a font with equal spacing between characters, making it easier to read and align text consistently. It is different from other fonts because it has fixed-width characters, ensuring uniform appearance and easier alignment. The font will work on all devices and browsers that support Courier New, but it is recommended to have a fallback font. The "Equal Spaced Font (Courier New)" can also be used in conjunction with other fonts for visual contrast. To use it, simply add the <code><font face="Courier New"></code> tag around the desired text and include a fallback font.

It would be nice to have a convenient tag for an equal spaced font (such as Courier New). [ FONT = Courier New ] is a little wordy; it would be nice to have something like [ tt ] (or even [ t ])

All you have to do is use the pull-down font menu. You needn't type out the tag.
