Typewriter is a medium-weight uniformly spaced type face.  You get this face
when you enter \typewriter.  Each character has the same width.  It is handy
in \asisbegin blocks.
 
    ã|Example:ã%
Using the typewriter font,
 
\asisbegin
And yet not cloy thy lips            1
    with loath'd satiety,            2
But rather famish them               3
 
    amid their plenty,               4
\asisend
 
you get the line number on the right to line up:

| And yet not cloy thy lips            1                                      |
|     with loath'd satiety,            2                                      |
| But rather famish them               3                                      |
|     amid their plenty,               4                                      |
|                                                                             |

Without \typewriter you get:

|                                                                             |
| And yet not cloy thy lips           1                                       |
|    with loath'd satiety,             2                                      |
| But rather famish them                3                                     |
|     amid their plenty,              4                                       |
|                                                                             |
