[R] Changing font size of Rcmdr (Linux)

Dear Paul,

You can change fonts and font sizes via Rcmdr options, as explained in
?Commander (also accessible via the R Commander "Help -> Commander help"
menu). For example, 

options(Rcmdr=list(default.font="*helvetica-medium-r-normal-*-20*",
log.font.size=20))

would change both the GUI elements and text input and output to 20-point
(from the default 12).

I hope this helps,
 John
