Is there anyway to change the size of the fonts used within the program, not the output for the game windows, that i already run at 12 point, but for the buttons and dialogs within the program itself.

I run Mush in wine under linux and the 10 point text for File Edit etc is just a bit small for what my eyes can deal with without squinting :)

Cheers,

Rob.

Go into "Configure Wine" (the app which comes with Wine) and change the screen resolution, eg. to 120 (default is 96) like this:



Then the dialog boxes should have larger type like this:



I must admit it doesn't seem to have affected the menu font size.

Aha, I found it after Googling a bit.

Use "Configure Wine" to change Desktop Integration, eg.



Now my menu looks like this:

Works perfectly for everything other than the ALL CONFIGURATION pane, it for some reason stays at the default text size. Cannot work out how to change that.
