Hi,
Thanks for your feedback. The font used for the book is Courier 8pt, and is from Manning's Microsoft Word template.
I'll chat to my editor to see if we can get the font adjusted to something more readable. If you have any particular font suggestions then I'll pass them on.
In regards to the syntax highlighting, it's a good idea and I'd be happy to do it. One factor to bear in mind is that the print version of the book will be in black and white, and so if we wish to apply syntax highlighting, it would be nice to use a color scheme that works well in greyscale when printed.
I'll let you know once I hear back.
Regards,
Paul Jensen
