How can I make that bigger? Um. I have no idea. I meant "smaller font" as in "smaller font size". As in GUI. If you're in text mode, then AFAIK, there's no screen resolution higher than 80x50. -jg

That's only is 'pure' text modes, under linux you can also do text consoles with the card in a graphics modes, like 1024x768 which gives massive consoles, using either framebuffers or svgatextmode. -- Benjamin Smith <bsm...@vtrl.co.uk, ben...@yahoo.co.uk>

I hope no-one is assuming I'm using - say - DOS or Windows. Or any form of computer powered by an x86 or Pentium or Athlon or anything like that. I've got a 21" monitor on this machine, but the newsreader window allows me to read 80 characters per line. -- Jeremy C B Nicoll - my opinions are my own.

It's well known that in this newsgroup there are people using almost every OS and News client imaginable. > User-Agent: Pluto/2.03a (RISC-OS/3.70) That's you. You already knew that, of course.

I did know that there was an alternate-font option for displaying messages (and in mine that's a proportional font) but not until I explored more carefully did I find that while the window size is fixed, I'm able to define the horizontal and vertical pixel sizes of an average character as well as the virtual line spacing. So in fact I can distort a pic to any extent I like in any direction, as well as choosing the font... I could go mad playing with this system if I wanted. Maybe I'm already mad... -- Jeremy C B Nicoll - my opinions are my own.
