Hi all,

I'm a newbie to Linux and using Mdk 9.2. It's very annoying to see the small font size in my x terminal.

I really want to know how to enlarge the font size in RXVT.

Thanks before hand for your suggestion and help

Use your browser to open file:///usr/share/doc/rxvt-2.7.10/doc/rxvt.html or wherever your RXVT documentation is. You can open rxvt with rxvt -fn 8x13 or you can put some commands in your ~/.Xdefaults file, such as:

! default settings for some X-Windows programs
! rxvt
rxvt.geometry: 100x24
rxvt.background: black
rxvt.foreground: white
rxvt.savelines: 128
!rxvt.font: smoothansi fkp glisp
rxvt.font: smoothansi
rxvt.scrollBar: True

Ftom the rxvt.hyml file:

You can change fonts on-the-fly, which is to say cycle through the default font and others of various sizes, by using Shift-KP_Add and Shift-KP_Subtract. Or, alternatively (if enabled) with Alt-> and Alt-<, where the actual key can be selected using resources smallfont_key/bigfont_key.

BTW, how do your "Home" and "End" keys work?

Hope that helps.
