Running gvim 7.4.591 on a FreeBSD 10.1 system (or 7.4.617 on an up-to-date Arch Linux system), I attempt to reduce the font size (using Edit->Set font) from the default 10-point Monospace to 8-points, for the purpose of getting more text on the screen. The response, surprisingly, is to reduce the size of the pane within the gvim window, thus displaying the same amount of text in a smaller area. Is there a way to get the effect I want with gvim, perhaps by restoring the pane to full size?
I did succeed in achieving something like what I want with vim by adjusting the xterm font size, but for what I am going now, gvim is preferable. Also, xterm provides only a few font-size choices; I'd prefer the finer granularity available in gvim. /Don Allen -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
