hi,

quarry is the best replayer on debian, because it has large buttons.

however, it lacks the ability to set font size.

thinking that it might be settable, i tried:

        quarry menus                    nothing
        quarry man page                 nonexistent (???)
        quarry doc                      nothing
        kde control center fonts        no effect
        gtk font setter                 none found on local system
        gtk control center              none found on local system
        gnome control center            no fonts settable (???)
                                        (but it "helpfully" changed my
                                        mouse speed without asking)
        google                          nothing easily found


this is an accessibility issue because some people cannot use programs
that do not let you set large fonts.

i stumbled on switch and switch2, which have the -f option, but *even
if* that works, how do i find the font that i was using, then find
a larger size of the same font, and hope that it works with other
programs?  this seems to me to be burdensome, especially for people
who don't happen to stumble on them.

if it's settable and i just didn't find out how, please change this
bug to a documentation bug.  people who need to set large fonts often
cannot go searching lots of places to find out how to do something
basic like setting fonts; they often have to give up on using a
program entirely.  that's not the debian spirit, right?  all programs
should make it easy to set font size.

thanks.
