Hi David,

We can change IDLE's fonts by editing the 'config-unix.txt' file
that's in IDLE's source directory.  Likewise, if we're running on a
Windows platform, we can modify 'config-win.txt'.

If you're interested, you can read 'config.txt' for some more details
about how IDLE reads sets up things like fonts, colors, and other
options.


Hope this helps!
