Mged and Red

Is there any way to increase the font size in the editing
window when
using red (region edit)?

None of the font changing commands in .mgedrc seem to affect
it.

Thanks.

Tom,

It depends which text editor you have specified.  By
default, the red  
command is going to kick off some text editor depending on
what it is  
able to locate at runtime (unless EDITOR is set) with an
inclination  
towards invoking an xterm window.  Presumably, if it's
kicking off an  
xterm in your case and the defaults font size is just small.
 You can  
change the default font size of an xterm in a couple of
ways, the  
easiest being to control-click in the window and select a
size.  To  
permanently set a default font, you can set the font in your
 
Xdefaults or .Xresources settings files.

Cheers!
Sean
