Configuring post editors (forum/wiki) with monospaced font

[~]

After many posts with inline code, it starts to feel difficult to format well the code with the current default fonts unsuitable for formatting code without having to paste it in a Notepad program (Lucida Grande, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif aren't so good to write code).

This file would need to be changed:
http://f.osdev.org/styles/MegaTokyo/the ... esheet.css


These lines should be modified with a different font:

Code: Select all

textarea {
	background-color: #074796; /* #FAFAFA; */
	color: white; /* #333333; */
	font-family: "Lucida Grande", Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
	font-size: 1.3em; 
	line-height: 1.4em;
	font-weight: normal;
	border: 1px solid #A9B8C2;
	padding: 2px;
}

They should look like this:

Code: Select all

textarea {
	background-color: #074796; /* #FAFAFA; */
	color: white; /* #333333; */
	font-family: "Courier New", Courier, Monospace;
	font-size: 1.3em; 
	line-height: 1.4em;
	font-weight: normal;
	border: 1px solid #A9B8C2;
	padding: 2px;
}

Hi,


Ignoring your previous attitude when posting, I agree with your statement here.

You can use an extension like Greasemonkey on Firefox or Tampermonkey in Chrome and other Webkit-based browsers for custom CSS overrides.

I remember that one Linux system that I once had came with an extension called "Stylish" pre-installed in Firefox. I never tried it but it seemed to be designed specifically for this kind of thing and people said that it was quite good.
