I've been using Verdana for coding for years, with some modifications. I've changed the parentheses, braces, operators etc. to be more prominent - that makes it just perfect for me.

Would you be willing to share your modified font?

Also, what color scheme is that?

I'm not sure about the legality of sharing a Microsoft font... the color scheme is my own.
Then could you post a diff of the OpenType file (e.g. to a pastebin)? Only those who already have the font would be able to produce your modified version. Alternatively, if creating a diff would take too much time, could you please tell me the names of the tools you used to create your own version of the font?
Oh, nice job making the encapsulating characters extra bold.
Also interested, standard Verdana in my terminal is unusable. Your screenshot looks awesome.
Would you be willing to share your colorscheme?
I'd be happy to, what editor do you use?
MacVim most often, TextMate every so often.

Thanks a lot!

do you have a vim colorscheme?
