Folks: Typically, I use i3wm, but I just got through sampling Plasma. Somehow it has reduced/changed what I guess I'd call my "system font". This shows up in Firefox menus, Claws-Mail menus and others. I don't really care about the font, but the size must be increased. The

If you're used to the common keystrokes for copy/cut/paste/undo of C-c/C-x/C-v/C-z, then you'll want to enable CUA mode. There are caveats that certain commands won't mirror the tutorial exactly but as far as I use Emacs, it is a benefit. I do disable CUA mode when I use Org mode as it uses the

LibreOffice Writer - Help system font too small

2020-06-05 Thread Richard Owlett
On a LUG mailing list I asked for a *text editor* which could set tabs at arbitrary column locations. I was referred to LibreOffice Writer. Clicking the Help button yields unreadably small text. How do I set the Help system's font size to something legible? Suggestions for a *text editor*,

How to change size of system font(s)?

The default font in Squeeze(Gnome2) and Jessie(Mate) is too small! Gedit and Pluma allow changing from default size of "10"[units not specified]. I find setting to 14 or larger much more legible on my laptop. Other programs, e.g. Synaptic, give no option to chose an acceptable font size.

LyX, synaptic, and gnome's system font.
