Is there a way to increase the font size when I'm at the console? (command line, no gui)

TIA

I'm rather fond of the font, it's large ish and has the appropriate high visibility color
Not to mention it's transparent, which is a minimal bar for a Slackware zombie.

Setting font for Virtual console:

Code:

setfont /usr/share/consolefonts/iso01-12x22.psfu.gz

or

Code:

for t in {1..64}; do
setfont -C /dev/tty${t} /usr/share/consolefonts/iso01-12x22.psfu.gz
done
