What I'd like > to know is how to set the default font in Warp? Use an INI editor like UNIMAINT to open OS2.INI (USER Ini) and go to the Application PM_SystemFonts. Or, in REGEDIT2, go to "My Computer" (makes ya wanta puke, doesn't it?), then to HINI_USER_PROFILE and from there drill down to PM_SystemFonts. DefaultFont---"10.System Proportional" is the standard one, and the only font that you are sure of seeing *all* dialogs sized correctly for. (If you change this, you may lose some of the text on dialogs; that's a warning.) Type in "9.WarpSans Bold", close it up, reboot and you're in business. Be very careful with your typing. It has Zero tolerance for typo errors, and you have to get both the . and the <space> for it to work properly. Otherwise, you may lost *all* dialogs until you get it straight. Better have a backup of both your INIs (\OS2\OS2.INI and \OS2\SYSTEM.INI) just in case. Good luck, Buddy Buddy Donnelly donnelly@tampabay.rr.com
