[R] Change font size in Windows

[John Kane]

My day for dumb questions. How do I increase the type size in the Rgui console in Windows? (R-2.13.0, Windows 7)

It looked to me that I just needed to change the font spec in Rconsole but that does not seem to be working.

The R FAQ for Windows has a reference in Q3.4 to changing fonts, (Q5.2), but I don't see anything relevant there. 

Rconsole originally was:
font = TT Courier New
points = 10
style = normal # Style can be normal, bold, italic

I changed this to points=14 and then in desperation to points=18 with no effect.

I have both restarted R and done a complete reboot to no avail.  What am I missing?

Any advice would be most gratefully received
