Looks like 'kdialog' supports Qt Style Sheets. I haven't played with these before. Appears to be a variant of CSS.
$ kdialog --stylesheet ~/tmp/kdialog.qss --msgbox "$(lsblk)" $ cat ~/tmp/kdialog.qss * { font-family: monospace; font-size: 16; } > I'm not sure if there's a way to identify the Qt components in use by 'kdialog' . (something like firefox' web developer "Inspect" would be awesome) I grabbed a copy of XnView's stylesheet file: "XnView/UI/style_sheet.qss" to start with. using it unchanged renders kdialog with a nice black background, but not monospaced, of course. That's probably the best way to handle kdialog's failings in other areas. There's also a Style "Theme" (--style). I guess i have to look into this stuff more. (this is more like the older X AppDefaults configurations to style X11 applications) --stephen -- Stephen Dowdy - Systems Administrator - NCAR/RAL 303.497.2869 - sdo...@ucar.edu - http://www.ral.ucar.edu/~sdowdy/
