That makes sense indeed. One thing is: there is no such thing as "the largest font available", we can always draw larger fonts, up to displaying just one letter at a time on the display :) What would be a reasonable number of letters shown on the display? There is the usual 80x25 terminal sizes. With the apparently-common 800x600 fbdev resolution we currently have 100x37 (8x16 font). 80x25 would need a 10x24 font (we already have a 10x20 terminus font, that would make a 80x30 terminal). Ideally the user would have a shortcut to tune the size, it's however not that simple. Samuel
