Fonts for software development

I recently saw a digg article on a cool font for development, namely triskline, I tried it out and frankly it was good enough so I used it over the default courier. But, the italics in triskline sucked, and in Komodo, the development environment/editor I use, comments are italics, and this irked me to no end.

Today I saw another link to programming fonts, and I have to say I like the Vera Bitstream. So I've switched, the italics is much better and you also have the choice of different point sizes, something not available with triskline.

Viva la Bitstream Vera!
