I did a little experiment this morning and typed in "dmfont" and found that NB writes to a file in the Windows directory called "swlocal.ini".Leave it to a Richmonder (my home town)! How (i.e., how in hell) did you discover this? Did you make the change and then search for recently altered files?The contents of said file after I issued the dmfont command: [Defaults]Draft Mode Font=F4FF0000000000009001000000FF010201315465726D696E616C000C2602BABE4D4FFF05800268028E7D0C040300BABE0300 It appears that just deleting/renaming this file returns things to normal.Changes don't take effect until you exit and restart nb.Harry Binswanger hb@xxxxxxxx
