That matters very little to the users. Regarding where each setting belongs, I agree that fonts belong in appearance. However, every OS/DE I know of places font settings as a standalone config module. Amusingly in windows, this is mostly a solved problem. Tag- and action-driven settings that still show a set of "modules". I agree with the approach, really. This is a discussion for another day though. Regardless of where it goes, we'll need the functionality. J. Leclanche > Cheers > >> J.
