The only time you would need to specify a font is if you are writing to
something other than a text file. RTF, for example.
Text is text and has no formatting at all. The formatting for a text file
is done through the text editor it is opened in. I cannot think of any
that would open a text file in a non-monospace font.
But to answer your question in case you are writing to an HTML email or
Word or RTF, the standard on Windows is Courier New. It is a monospace
font. If you are using HTML, use the <pre></pre> tags to indicate
preformatted text (which will have no formatting).
Best of luck!

Yes, I need to specify a font type so that the characters
will be evenly spaced when I write to a tab delimited text
file. So how does one specify a font type to write/print
and which font is best for evenness?
