Hi Henk,

I can't wait. This sounds very useful.

However, be aware that setting the font for the current dos/os/2 box and
for all such boxes is not the same, and I for one, would like to set
either/both (Preferably being able to predict in advance which one
is going to be set :-)

As you say, the GUI is not always the best answer.
