Albert W. Hopkins: AFAIK IDLE uses the Tk toolkit. So it seems... So you'll probably need to configure the fonts for Tk ...and i have already searched for a way to do so. In vain. Would be nice, if this could be done not alone for idle but also for other tk applications. (however that's done). *g* A config file in /etc, in home, perhaps some lines in .Xresources...

That's what I was thinking. I pretty much stick with a plain xterm, but for that to be workable on a 22 1080p LCD, I had to adjust font sizes. For example, from my ~/.Xdefaults-serenity file: *customization: -color xterm.RenderFont.renderFont: true xterm*faceName: terminusbold xterm*faceSize: 10 These settings don't impact anything outside of xterm, though. -- :wq
