I take it that your laptop has an Apple Retina display?

I've thought about handling this. I actually experimented with some changes
to NTK a few years ago to scale everything up by a certain percentage. But
I'm not really sure that's the best thing to do. I have a display of the
same resolution as yours, but mine is 50", so everything looks fine. I can
imagine that squeezing that into a 13" laptop screen would make everything
pretty hard to read... What would you want personally? Would having all of
the text and graphics scaled up the same amount be sufficient?
