XMMS, in particular, has a "Double size" switch, which doubles the size of *everything*; my screen's only 8x6, but I run it that way anyway; yes, it's sticky. > Mozilla's font settings also seem to only affect the text it displays > in web pages.

Hmmm... on Windows, NS7's menus and such are only adjustable with the Font Scale control; on Linux, I'd *suspect* there's something in one of the prefs.js files you could twiddle, but I'm not sure what -- mozilla.org might be a better place to look. I smell a MiniHOWTO here... :-) Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
