Font Size for View()

Thanks for the feedback. At least on Windows, the font size for View() appears to be controlled by the font size specified under the Rgui preferences / Rconsole. I thought that under Linux, it might be controlled by some .Xresources/.Xdefaults setting.

Ok, will wait for a bit but if nobody else has any suggestions, I'll ask on r-devel.

Best,
Wolfgang

Not sure, especially as some of these x11 features are (AFAIK) "old" within R
and may not use newer font mechanisms.

Might be worth a question on r-devel.  Don't think this is really Debian or
Ubuntu specific.
