GEdit is rather weak :( I am using VIM and Eclipse for coding and 
changed Eclipse font to monospaced Terminus font from default 
proportional. Problem I have with proportional fonts - they are 
not random-access ranges but sequential ones :) My brain is not 
capable of computing required offset for 30-40 proportional 
symbols in no observable time, contrary to monospaced.

I still prefer proportional for books and web, of course, because 
it looks better and normal reading is indeed sequential.
