    Liberation Mono is what I have been using recently. I've tried other fonts mentioned in other posts, but Liberation Mono is my preferred choice. Use it in gvim and terminal windows.

    Not a fan of spacing in Source Code Pro, making it less readable than some other fonts. I used to use Lucida Console, but compared to Liberation Mono, it looks scrunched. I guess useful if vertical real estate is a concern, but I am used to working in 80x24 character windows, so I go for readability over verticial size.
