Ya, that's a cool trick. I keep forgetting it myself.
It's something of a 'workaround' for this STR item:
http://fltk.org/str.php?L1029
I'm still +1 on the idea of making an official Fl::XXX() method
for not only setting the default font face/size, but also a way
to apply an 'offset size' to all fonts, eg. Fl::fontsize_offset(4);
which could add 4 points to the font size of all fonts.
Notebook computers with ultra-small pixels are making this a real
necessity for apps to allow the user to increase font sizes globally;
sizes that look fine on normal screens are impossible to read on some
of these new 'ultrafine' displays that have many more pixels per inch.
