That particular filename comes up empty on my system.  Per the help in
Idle I looked at /usr/lib/idle/EditorWindow.py and found this relevant
frgament:

        if sys.platform[:3] == 'win':
            text['font'] = ("lucida console", 8)

The if statement leads me to believe this only works in MS Windows as I
tried changing it and still had the small text size upon the next
restart of Idle.

Thanks.

Next?
