If you are used to DejaVu Sans Mono (or its ancestor Bitstream Vera Sans Mono), you might like Hack as well — it modifies DejaVu Sans Mono to make it even more suitable for source code and introduces a number of nicely aligned glyphs (geometric shapes, etc.) for use in terminals and status lines.

Great for both terminal emulators and code editors alike.

That explains why the font looked so familiar. I've been using DejaVu Sans Mono since forever and it's great.
