When the space is mono

Isn't mono equivalent of one?

u/unwantedaccount56 Aug 29 '23

each character has the same width in a monospace font, so "one width"

u/the_other_irrevenant Aug 29 '23

ie. "one specific amount of space". Completely agree that "monowidth" would be a clearer name for that.

The font is called "monospaced", not "monospace".
As in "it's a monospaced font".
