make thunderbird look bigger


Dear all,
I would like to do thunderbird (I think is a gtk app) look bigger (from the windows bar, the menu's font size and so on).

I am connecting through svn and I got only an xterm. From the xterm I can launch the thunderbird which looks too small.

If I can somehow alter the settings so to appear a bit more visible.
For that I would to ask you what I can do.
I recall that in kde control center that there was an option for gtk apps. How can I launch kde's control center from xterm (I have kde 4.6)

I would like to thank you in advance for your help

BR
Alex
