*fake* maybe a little strong, but of course we are all aware of this. I start console apps by going to Ctrl-Alt-F2, then the default is with colors. Please give us a little more time until we settle on the 'perfect' way to both have good defaults and allow switching between the different gray and color fonts we have on the Ben.

In general there is a lot of documentation that is lost or hard to find. Whether it's man/info manuals, console --help displays, html or pdf documentation, NanoNote specific introductions or tutorials, etc. I guess we have to approach it one by one. If you want to start an Emacs page in the wiki, please just go ahead. > - What about adding zgv, octave, gnuplot (all are missing gmenu2x > starter entries).

Ah that's nice. I was looking for an Octave screenshot but couldn't find one (and don't have it on my Ben right now). Let's wait until jirka confirms the license then we can add it to the wiki. I do like the large and clean font in jirka's screenshot, I think a lot of our console apps could benefit from a larger default font. And a way to switch between fonts, maybe even with some hotkey and automatic redrawing? Not sure whether that is possible...
