Felix:

Thank you for the attention on your site. But, I am confused as to
direction to go. Except that I learned awhile ago that if there was room
where I live for a huge monitor, a lots of used ones are available for a
song--well,the Viewsonic PT810 was $20, since businesses are conscious
of desktop real estate and have all gone to LCDs.

So, with a 20" monitor capable of 1600 x 1280 {at} 65hz, what should the
settings be for 

> SET sddfontsize=
> SET sddfontdpi=
> SET sddicons=

?

Or, which combinations of these make no sense?

Works on every Mozilla, Firefox and SeaMonkey version I've tried on
Mac, Doz, OS/2 & Linux. Are you still using Netscape 4 or Opera 5?

Here on eCS: http://mrmazda.no-ip.com/SS/Moz/FF2Arial.png

Linux (can be tricked):

Then with a modestly higher screen DPI with a new display you should be
OK by changing DPI to 120 & FONT to medium.
