Why not give people a choice...? Fixed or Variable? Or for that matter, any font the system knows about? (Like most other software titles in one form or another...)
Have to say, a fixed width font for me is the way to go in spreadsheets etc, but I suspect that is not what is being talked about. From the few screenshots I've seen of the new version, the default UI is very poor contrast (dark grey on light grey, not good.) (So no doubt making readability much worse than it otherwise could be.)
Still not got the new version to run yet, so "Devils Advocate" mode at the moment. (There again, I never managed to build the old version from source, as I wanted to do for some work on the Puxing PX-2R driver.)
I now have ...
~$ python3.7 -V Python 3.7.5
... working, but I suspect something in the chirp blob is dialling up an earlier version for some reason, and that is preventing the virtual environment from being correctly created. 2.7 and 3 also exist on this system (for various odd reasons, Chirp being one!) I like Python as a language, but the inter-version incompatibilities are becoming a major issue.
Is it even possible at present to have old and new versions co-existing on the same system? (Not urgent, as earlier I know the OS needs upgrading.)

If there are users here who prefer the fixed-width font the way it is today, speak up and I'll make a way for you to choose which one is used. If I'm the only one, then I won't bother 😄
