&lt;p&gt;John McCarthy, innovator and creator of Lisp passed away today at 84.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Although his unique technology is still in use 50 years after it&#039;s creation, he will be sorely missed.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Programming Power Font</title>
    <link>http://lispnyc.org:80/blog/heow/programming-power-font</link>
    
      
        <description>
          &lt;p&gt;I&#039;ve always liked the &lt;strong&gt;Proggy&lt;/strong&gt; font, the bold punctuation really makes things stand out especially, especially if you program in Lisp where parens aren&#039;t just syntactic sugar, they represent functions and power.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So after getting my mits on the &lt;strong&gt;Inconsolata&lt;/strong&gt; font, I did some modifications to create a version with bold punctuation.&amp;nbsp; It&#039;s especially helpful in environments that don&#039;t offer syntax coloration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An example:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&#034;Inconsolata Bold Punct example&#034; src=&#034;https://github.com/heow/inconsolata-boldpunct/raw/master/screenshot.png&#034; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&#034;https://github.com/heow/inconsolata-boldpunct/raw/master/Inconsolata-BoldPunct.ttf&#034;&gt;Grab the TTF here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
