US-079 | | 7.2.2.2 and throughout | | Ed | In the previous edition, the style for code (as for the ABNF rules here) was much easier to read.

Please fix the style for an easier read.

Rejected: Previously, we set all code fragments and blocks using the font "Consolas;" however, ISO requires us to use "Courier New," which we have.

I at least would like to discuss this topic with ISO. Surely, their choice of fonts is unfriendly to aged guys like us...

murata2makoto commented 4 years ago

It might be possible to introduce an alternative monospaced font in addition to ‘Courier New’.

RexJaeschke commented 4 years ago

We'll extend the Q. to ISO w.r.t alternate fonts from Issue #25 to include code and code fragment styles.

RexJaeschke commented 3 years ago

We have been told by ISO that there are no acceptable constant-width alternatives to Courier New, so we're stuck with that.
