Is it possible to replace the standard system fonts (i.e. Chicago 12 and
Geneva 9) with different (much larger) fonts?  I tried playing with ResEdit
and F/DA mover, but nothing seemed to work.  Are these fonts actually in
ROM now?  If so, is it still possible to somehow install a new font to 
replace what's in ROM?
                                                  thanx,
                                                       theo
