Re: [PLUG] Fonts in Netscape

[tom panzarella <tpanzarella@acm.org>]

To increase the font size in Netscape you can edit your .Xdefaults file 
(located in the root of your home dir ... if it's not there, just create 
it) and add this line to it:

Netscape*documentFonts.sizeIncrement: 5

The "5" is the scale, set this to whatever you want.  Then the next time 
you fire up X the Netscape changes should take.
