I'm glad you like it, but in retrospect I think something in grayscale
with a more 'newspaper' style layout might be better (and very nice
fonts).  A grayscale or muted design would focus more on typography
than colors.

The font is 'Scriptina' and Pango can/did render it, it's just not
that usable on the desktop.  This is a shot of a scriptina terminal
next to my usual terminal (they are both 80x17):
