[R] Other fixed-width fonts like courier?

[Prof Brian Ripley]

R has no fonts at all.

At a guess you are using Windows, and your OS has many other fonts.
For how to use them in an R graphics device on Windows see the rw-FAQ or
?Rdevga, and in the Rgui console see ?Rconsole and the GUI preferences 
editor.

And what has this to do with Peter Flom's reply to another question?
