This is a bug in the server's fontcmp() function. In it's current behavior, if size is
zero it simply picks the first font in the list. Turns out that because of the way the
build system builds the font list, this is usually the largest font. I would think
that the correct (or at least more intuitive) way to do this would be to compare the
font size to the size of the default font.
I modified the server to use the default font's size when size==0. This means that the
line:
pgNewFont(NULL,0,0);
Will allocate the first font it finds that is closest to the default font's size,
without regard to the font name or special flags. This is not necessarily the default
font, but it will be similar. To request the default font:
pgNewFont(NULL,0,PG_FSTYLE_DEFAULT);
This brings up another issue. The font used for widgets, (including the message boxes)
can be set in the theme, but the official default font is still defined by the
'default' style flag in the font's '.fi' file. It would be nice to have an option in
menuconfig to set the default variable and default fixed width fonts.
