Anonymous Pro is a family of fixed-width fonts designed especially with coding
in mind. Characters that could be mistaken for one another (O, 0, I, l, 1,
etc.) have distinct shapes to make them easier to tell apart in the context of
source code.


Anonymous Pro is a sans-serif monospaced font intended for use by programmers and in terminal applications. The character design takes special care to differentiate between commonly-confused characters such as O, 0, I, l, 1, ,, ., and so on. The font was created by Mark Simonson based off of some of his earlier work and the original bitmap font Anonymous by Susan Lesch and David Lamkins.
It has support for most Western and European Latin-based languages, Greek, and
Cyrillic. It also includes special “box drawing” characters.


Anonymous Pro is based on an earlier font, Anonymous, which is a TrueType
version of Susan Lesch and David Lamkins’ font Anonymous 9, a freeware
Macintosh bitmap font.
