Hi, I am delighted with xboard except for one thing. I usually use it with the engine output pane on one side and the board on the other, in analysis mode. The problem I have is that the moves in the engine output pane are almost impossible for me to read. I need to change the font and also the size, but cannot figure out how to do it. I have tried editing .Xresources and all the other files I can think of, with zero result. I am on debian testing, the built-in fonts menu item doesn't work, as my version is not gtk. I haven't found a .deb gtk version anywhere.
I also tried downloading the source with a view to compiling it myself - yes, that is how unreadable it is for me! That seems to involve a bunch of stuff I don't understand at all, like setting up SSH or doing something called cloning github repositories, and that is only to get the source code to compile! This surely cannot be right? Making the font larger and more readable is such a simple thing in every other application I use. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I cannot be alone in having this problem. Peter
