Switching back to Courier made all the difference in the world.

I wasn't sure, so I looked. 10 point Courier New. Then I checked my putty configuration, and found 9 point Courier New. I don't find parens and braces hard to distinguish at those sizes. Must be a personal taste thing. I tried Lucida Console for a while, but switched back.
