Re: change fontsize

[Chazz Mevoli <cmevoli afsa com>]

You have to set the X resource manually unless there's a GUI for this
that I'm not aware of.  In the home directory of your user, there should
be a file called ".Xdefaults" that you want to edit.  If it doesnt
exist, you can create one.  In that file, add lines like so...

*fontList: -*-lucidux sans-medium-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-p-*-*-*
*font: -*-lucidux sans-medium-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-p-*-*-*
*background: #505050
*foreground: #fefede

The last two lines are if you want to change the colors for standard X
apps.  If you want to choose the font you like, there's a nice GUI gnome
tool called "gfontsel" which will create the font descriptor string you
need.  Also, for colors, you can create those with the gcolorsel tool.
