Mentre io pensavo ad una intro simpatica "Franz Steinhaeusler"
scriveva:

Hmm, I don't think so, I like pyGTK very much :-D

Not at the moment, maybe in the future ... but of course if you can't
wait you can modify the source by yourself, the files to modify are
xpn_src/Groups_Pane.py and xpn_src/Threads_Pane.py
just add the line

import pango 

in the both the files, and then:
at the end of Groups_Pane.py add this line (do not change the
indentation):

        self.groups_list.modify_font(pango.FontDescription("monospace 10"))

at the end of Threads_Pane.py add this line (do not change the
indentation):

        self.threads_tree.modify_font(pango.FontDescription("monospace 10"))

of course you can change the font description as you like.

First things first, but not necessarily in that order.
