That's the plan, we just have to figure out how best to do that.
It'll be easy on Windows, the installer will handle it nicely. On
GNU/Linux platforms, it should be installed via the package
management, like "yum install dejavu-lgc-fonts". On Mac OS X, the
user will probably have to do it manually, but that's not hard.
It might make more sense to use Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, since
that's included on any machine with GNOME installed. DejaVu is the
same font with support for more languages and character sets. I am
not sure that Pd will even display them all.

A quick question RE the font: can it be included in the release? If we're going through all the trouble to include externals and the like, it shouldn't be so hard as to also include the font...or am I missing something?

I think that font looks great, much classier than courier... and it's nice to have the same font size/layout. Thanks for your work on

Ok, finally another release for Pd-0.39.2-extended. After a long pause, it's time for a code freeze and debugging. That means Release Candidate 1. Yes, there are known bugs, and most definitely unknown bugs. Let's find them and make a final release!
There are two important changes in this release:
- DejaVu Sans Mono is now default font
- same sizes and layout on all platforms
That means you need to install the font "DejaVu Sans Mono" if you don't already have it installed:

The use of this font is not set in stone, we can use another, but it needs to be free. Here are some screenshots of the fonts that I
tried:http://pow.idmi.poly.edu/~hans/pdfonts/
