I *really *don't like using icons for controls (in any app, really), either 
page or tiddler controls, and I would rather have buttons with text instead 
for nearly everything. 

Unfortunately, currently, changing options so as to to remove icons and use 
text instead introduces a number of *serious *visual problems

1. The buttons' font size are WAY too big, and take up way too much space 
(especially page controls), 
2. They don't don't look much like buttons should, and 
3. They have no reaction on mouse hover.

Personally, as my own example, I'd like to have the following css for the 
text of control buttons (page and tiddler) be close to something like this: 

Normal  
  font-size: 16px;
  font-weight: normal;
  border: 1px solid
  padding: 0 4px 0 4px;

On hover 
  font-size: 16px;
  font-weight: bold;  
  border: 2px solid
  padding: 0 4px 0 4px;

  


In a most haphazard way, I figured out a few steps for how to make these 
apply to the toolbar buttons and the page control buttons, but I can't 
figure out 1) how to make them change on hover like with icons, and 2) I 
don't know how to make it change the text displayed for a button, if, for 
example, I wanted to shorten "control panel" to "settings" or "save 
changes" to "save".

I'd like to use em instead of px, but can't get it to work for the tiddler 
controls in view mode if i do. Unfortunately, doing it with px makes the 
"more" dropdown text go super tiny. arg.

Anyway, thanks for your time!
