Increasing font size in links text browser


Does anyone know if it is possible to increase the font size in links?
I have a screen resolution of 1280x1024 so text in links is tiny. I know
there is an option to increase the menu font size but that's no use to me.
Googling for it is nearly impossible because "links" is one of those
unfortunate names that throws up everything other than what I want?

err

pardon me if i am wrong but, isn't 'links' a text-mode application which means you increase the font size by increasing the font size of the console/terminal that it is running in?

Thanks creolophus. Your suggestion was so simple I don't know why I never thought of it. If only I had, then I would have saved myself some eyestrain. Thanks!
