I’d say they played too *little* with OS X. That, or they tried to clone it without grokking it first. The standard Mac OS X font picker *does* have a Fixed Width option. The only GUI text editors on my Mac OS X box that don’t use this mechanism to select fonts are cross-platform apps that make you edit a JSON file to change fonts. (Sublime Text and Visual Studio Code.) And ironically, editing a config file to change fonts is more Unixy than Mac OS X. > For me switching to XFCE as DE helped enormously in getting work > done, not getting angry at the UI all the time was a nice plus. CentOS has a GUI? Since when? My CentOS GUI is called SecureCRT. :) _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
