I am running centos 4.x and 5 x86_64 and using the script below and the slider bar at the bottom I cannot get fonts bigger than 50.
someone else posted a followup and said he has the same issue. What can be happening here??? xlsfonts shows that bigger fonts are available.
How can I get bigger fonts???
Note - I had to do a "yum install tk" also...
Thanks,

What output do you get from:
xlsfonts|fgrep -i helvetica
Try a scalable font instead. E.g. replacing Helvetica with utopia made your example work.

Mogens, Thanks I tried utopia also and that does work... Why doesnt Helvetica work? Helvetica point size goes higher than 50.
Here is my xlsfonts output...

No, it goes to a pixelsize of 34:

And please, please, please do fix your mail user agent! I have no idea how you got Thunderbird/Mozilla Mail to drop the In-Reply-To header. Every mail from you starts a new thread, because you are deleting threading references!

Ralph,
Maybe it's his email provider dropping the In-Reply-To header item. His email header did have a References tag.
BTW: Looking at the Mutt manual: Mutt should use either "In-Reply-To" or "References" if "strict_threads" is set to yes.

Yes. In a broken format (without the <> around those) and it is referencing his first posting.

Which doesn't repair this :(
