You might consider "Letter Gothic 12 Pitch", from Bitstream. This is a very clean, sans serif, monospace font that I have used for C++ listings. There is also a monospaced Helvetica called "Monospace 821" from Bitstream, but I don't care for it, personally. If either of these is too light, there are bold versions (and italic, and bold-italic :-). Proclaimer: I work for Bitstream. -- Glenn P.
