What version of OSX are you on? I'm on 10.9.5. If you're on an earlier
version, maybe this is something they fixed.

Its strange. Both the family list and typeface tbales are empty,
regardless of which category is selected. But all is well in Font
Book. I activated the Restore Defaults button which did nothing for
the empty tables. Wish I knew what I hroke in there.

Hmm. When I tried it I was dropped into the font picker widget. Seemed
to sometimes land on size and sometimes elsewhere. Anyway, if I did
VO-right enough times I eventually got to some tables, one of which was
called "family list table". In there I could arrow up/down to pick a
font from the alphabetical list or I could quickly type "Ch" to jump to
Chalkboard and then hit command-w to close the font picker widget. To
the right of the Change button it then read the newly selected font
default.

Ok, went into Preferences and there is actualy a Comic Sans MS font.
Bit there I got stuck, cannot seem to set that font. First time I
tried, I could not get it to take. 2nd time I tried, there are no
fonts at all in the list. Will try it again shortly.

There are two default font settings in Preferences under the New
Document tab. One for Plain Text and one for Rich Text.
As far as Comic Sans, that's a bit like asking what is the
equivalent to
the Microsoft Zune. Or at least many paragraphs have been wordsmithed
about how the original font from Microsoft Bob should be banned. That
said, if you google around you can find articles suggesting comparable
fonts such as Chalkboard.

How does one set the default font and size in TextEdit? Is this only
per document or can this be set as default for new documents?
Is there an equivalent font to Comic Sans MS in Windows?
