While I was doing this, I also tried to tweak source window police. Currently on my machine it renders as Courier New, a font I never liked (too thin, poor legibility). I wanted to use Lucida Console, but despite numerous variations I couldn't change main.gui entry to make LDCad use that font
- I finally installed dejavusansmono to solve this issue...
LDCad uses the main.gui font names litteraly and will will search for a .ttf or .ttc file for it in the system fonts folder (usually c:\windows\fonts)
So for Lucida console use "lucon" in main.gui.
I think I've gotten dejavusans through Libre Office or something as it is present on both my Windows 7 and XP machines. I think I'll add arial and lucida console to the default fonts list.
