[SLUG] More on Font sizes under KDE & Gnome

[Rod Butcher]

Following up on my previous email, I've managed to control thee font 
sizes of Gnome-responsive apps, while using KDE, by loading the Gnome 
Panel (hence having both Gnome and KDE panel running), then killing 
Gnome panel. Strangely, if I then execute Thunderbird and FireFox again 
via the KDE panel, they retain the Gnome font settings (i.e. correct 
size).Similarly, once Gnome Panel has been loaded and killed, GFtp then 
runs under KDE with correct size fonts.
All of which thoroughly confuses me - where do they get there font sizes 
from ?
This still leaves me with other apps like Sweep, which display tiny 
fonts under any screen manager. Are such apps controllable ?
regards
Rod
