Hello,

The following bug has to do with fvwm2 and AFAIK has long been present in
fvwm2. When I run netscape and select Edit -> Preferences -> Appearance ->
Fonts I increase the fonts to their maximum size but the fonts only
increase
in size slightly, sometimes not at all.

Why do I think this has to do with fvwm2? Well, I compared with KDE and
found that when I run netscape under the latter, the fonts did get
significantly bigger when I selected the largest font size. Personally
I am not sure why this works this way. Perhaps it has to do with the
way the window manager access the X Font server or perhaps there are
some special netscape signals that need to be caught???

Thanks,

Neil
