When I use an interlaced workbench I use Courier/15. This may not be the
best choice for everyone, but I like it.  I actually prefer the look of
Helvetica/15 but you can't use that because it's proportional.  Maybe one of
the really cool people will write a proportional font CLI with an on the fly
tab setting feature.
