Twice in the past couple of months I asked how I could change the
default font on an ASCII file displayed in Librarian from Ohlfs 10 to
Helvetica 15 in Rel 3.0.  Well, we have been without news for about ten
days so I do not know if anybody answered my last query, but I have
developed an answer on my own. 

Running strings on Librarian showed mention of NXFixedPitchFont[Size].
On a wild shot, I used DefaultMgr to add these to my database and
set them to Helvetica 15.  Even though this is NOT fixed ptich, it
worked!  I also tried it in Terminal but there it did not work.
Apparently Terminal is a little more careful about what it will accept
as fixed pitch.
