title: What is a good programming font that looks good through Remote Desktop?
body: <p>I guess I've just gotten spoiled with Consolas working on my local development machine. But at work we do a lot of development remotely via Remote Desktop, where any fonts requiring ClearType look <em>awful</em>.</p>
  
  <p>I mean, <em>look</em> at this:</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/z6rbR.png" alt="Screenshot of Consolas font on Remote Desktop"></p>
  
  <p>Normally I'm not a big fan of Courier New, but in this scenario it beats Consolas, along with all the other otherwise great-looking programmer fonts I've found (which all seem to require ClearType or some other rendering effect that apparently isn't available through Remote Desktop, at least from Windows XP) hands-down.</p>
  
  <p>Can someone suggest any high-quality fonts suitable for programming that will still look good through Remote Desktop?</p>
