most of the commands I will find keyboard shortcuts and reach for the mouse a little as possible.
Thanks for responding. Nice to know about the mods That might provide some solution.
I'm looking at the data files and see a font...might play with fonts size there.
ah, yes, we are referring to the same thing.
i told you how to make the box larger however, i am unaware of how to make the FONT larger.
not sure anyone has had success with that.
BTW, i understand exactly how you feel as you try to the small fonts.

My solution... get a bigger widescreen monitor...

I have an Emerson 50 incher WS TV that's PC monitor capable... & wow... feels like you're in the thick of it all... with THX sound.... felt like I got blown out of My chair...

50 inch monitor, eh?
that is larger than my 1080 dpi television, and i watch that from 10-12 feet away.
50 inch monitor at arm's length? i am a child of the 50's, the radiation from the monitor, alone, would kill me.

*wipes away tears of mirth* wheeeewwwhhhhhh... ok, now that I can breath. Thanks for that belly laugh, KaleunMarco.

When I was using it, in monitor mode (as well, as for My consoles.. see PS3, & the like... I also used it for watching movies... heck, still do, along with normal TV. Just not as a monitor or gaming.

My... *sighs* gf, hijacked it... for just standard TV related viewing.... awww women... Can't live with 'em, sometimes... can't do without 'em *shrugs*
