A problem with Inconsolata that I have forgotten to tell you is that there 
isn't a true bold version yet, so the bold characters don't have the same 
width. So if your code highlighting converts some words to bold, the alignments 
break. This is quite so bad that I have disabled bold highlighting in my Python 
editor where I use that font. In the future I'll create a bold version of 
Inconsolata-g to solve this problem, it requires some tedious work, because it 
seems there are no automatic tools to do this.
