Add monospace font - Githubissues

Proposal : Add monospace font.

The for the exact font itself maybe can be discussed here because as @bdach said in https://github.com/ppy/osu/pull/12688#issuecomment-832874635

And a monospace font, as well, but that's a bigger quandary, since web doesn't actually choose one monospace font, but just uses whichever flavour is available on the system:
font-family: Menlo (macOS-specific), Monaco (macOS-specific), Consolas (windows-specific), Courier New (windows-specific), monospace (whatever is left available);
I believe all of the above named fonts are not opentype-licensed, either.

This issue can be closed and merged with #12739 if needed.

There's also a monospace font at framework side Roboto. Have you attempted to use that for the time being?

Roboto and Roboto Mono are different font in the same Roboto family.

In framework side there are only Roboto and Roboto Condensed.

After take a look into Roboto Mono, I think the font is good enough.

Right. Even so, I think it's closer to monospaced to the point where it could be used for the time being? We do that at the framework-side already, as far as I'm aware.

As a heads up, these are the comparison of using current default Torus font, Roboto font, and Roboto Mono font.

Torus
