Hey guys I haven't been messing around with programming much but it's a pain when I do because my fonts are not very friendly for codes.. My parenthesis almost make a perfect circle and my * and other keys are not very accurate or nice to look at. I was wondering what if any common font(s) are used. Thanks in advance.

It is personally what I use, there is a nice sum here Coding Horror: Progamming Fonts and here Font Survey: 42 of the Best Monospaced Programming Fonts - CodeProject

Most monospace fonts work well for me.
