Google Droid Sans Mono vs Code New Roman

Feels very easy to read code, even in a very small px (like 10 or 9). Letters are slightly separated, l (ell) and 1 are different, " (opening and closing quote) is straight and not angled, and the "Zero Slashed" version makes it an excellent font for coding.

Very easy to scan through code. Large character size for fonts of the same type size.

Droid Sans Mono looks beautiful. The only disadvantage is that there's no italics or bold.

Code New Roman is published under SIL Open Font License making it completely free.

Code New Roman seems like a mix of Monaco and Consolas, but looks very well on retina monitors.

It's comfortable for the user to read Code New Roman for long periods. OpenType features include hanging or lining numerals (slashed, dotted, and normal zeros) as well as alternative shapes for a number of lowercase letters.

You can download and install it on Windows vista or higher (for cleartype technology support) and Mac OSX.

Code New Roman offers Regular, Bold , Italic, and Bold-Italic typefaces.

Code New Roman has been tested on cheap Dell Inspiron with Ubuntu 14.04 installed and looks great on gtk-based apps such as Sublime Text, Geany, and TextAdept. It's also great on Qt-based apps such as KDevelop and Spyder. For electron/nwjs-based applications, it looks great on Visual Studio Code and Brackets, but has yet been tested on atom. However, it looks horrible on Swing-based apps such as Netbeans or Jetbrains' IDE.

Code New Roman is available in English.

This means that jaggies are reduced, making the line smoother.
