I am *seriously* worried about comrade D'Aprano! Either his little
sister is using his account or he has completely lost his marbles!
Either way i am worried! SERIOUSLY!

Steven, are you seriously telling this group that with all your
knowledge of Python, CPython, C and many other languages you cannot
solve a simple "attack of the Tkinter giant font" bug? You cannot read
a tutorial or a manual to find the answer? You cannot use Google?
