Subject:	RE: Changing font for Edit/Tpu/interface=motif
The following comes from the LSE$DEFAULTS.DAT file, I'm not sure why
it's not included in the TPU.DAT file as well.  I haven't tried changing
these but I would be surprised if they work for LSE but not TPU.
 
!Default Font for all Windows:
! This font resource determines the style and size of the text displayed
by the 
! LSE DECwindows interface except for the font resources explicitly
specified
! after this definition in this file.   This resource will control the
size of
! the dialog windows displayed by the LSE DECwindows interface.   The
wildcard
! in the resource name matches all window names in the the LSE
DECwindows
! interface.   The value for the resource must be a valid DECwindows
font.
! See the DECwindows documentation for further information about
DECwindow 
! fonts.
!
Tpu.*.FontList:
-*-Menu-Medium-R-Normal--*-120-*-*-P-*-ISO8859-1
!
!Fonts for the Help Windows:
! These font resources determine the style and size of the text
displayed in
! the help window for the LSE DECwindows interface.
!
Tpu.*Help*.buttonFontList:
-*-Menu-Medium-R-Normal--*-120-*-*-P-*-ISO8859-1
Tpu.*Help*.labelFontList:
-*-Menu-Medium-R-Normal--*-120-*-*-P-*-ISO8859-1
Tpu.*Help*.textFontList:
-*-Helvetica-Medium-R-Normal--*-100-*-*-P-*-ISO8859-1
!
!Size of the Help Windows:
! These resources determine the size of the help window of the LSE
DECwindows
! interface.  These sizes can be adjusted to allow more or less
information
! to be displayed in the help window.  The size values are in character
rows
! and columns.
!
Tpu.*Help*.DXmcols:        55
Tpu.*Help*.DXmrows:        20
!
!***********************************************************************
**
!
! These are examples off resource values that can be used by the LSE
! DECwindows interface on a small screen display.   This may be
desirable if
! any of the LSE windows are too large to fit on the display, as an
example
! this can occur while using eXcursion to display the DECwindows
interface
! on a PC.  Uncommenting the following resource values will cause the
these
! values to be used by LSE.
!
! Default Font for all Windows
!
!Tpu.*.FontList:  -*-ITC Avant Garde
Gothic-Book-R-Normal--*-120-75-75-P-*-ISO8859-1
!
!Font for the the main window:
! The LSE DECwindows interface utilizes a DECterm window to use for its
main
! window.    The size of the DECterm window is dependent upon which font
is
! used for that window.    For most displays, the default DECterm font
should
! be adequate.   These fonts resources  must specify terminal fonts in
order
! for the DECterm window to work properly.   See the DECwindows
documentation
! for further information about DECwindow fonts.
!
!Tpu.*.fontUsed:
-DEC-Terminal-Medium-R-Normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-*
!Tpu.*.littleFontSetName:
-DEC-Terminal-Medium-R-Normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-*
