me too. If you like small terms like aterm....some window managers allow keyboard shortcuts like jwm, icemwm that will allow to bind a key so
whatever you choice for keyboard combos it launches aterm with a larger font. There is another post on how to set that in your ~/.Xdefaults like this one
http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,23056.msg151316.html#msg151316
in jwm I use
--- Quote ---<Key mask="A" key="2">exec:aterm -fn 12x24</Key>
--- End quote ---
where A=Alt(ernate) key
EDIT if anyone knows what the windows logo key is called in jwm please let me know please
in icewm I use
--- Quote ---key "Super+2" aterm -fn 12x24
--- End quote ---
where Super=mod4=Windows logo key called other names as well

If you like to try a bigger term like lxterminal running on gtk3, once you have confirmed it loads ok, remove aterm from your boot list.Reboot.
Using Apps and downloading a new TCE will start xterm, and thanks to Bela Markus lxterminal will open and show your preferred fonts and size.
To those people like me, who should wear goggles more often, size does matter :)

--- Code: ---Touchpad.sh Off
--- End code ---
That command gets executed after X starts.
You just need to setup 2 variables, TouchpadName and PropertyName.
Read the comments in the script to find out how to obtain their values.

Rich: The Touchpad.sh script uses the command xinput, which I don't seem to have and don't find in the repo of extensions. Is it part of some non-obvious extension? Is it 32-bit and not 64? Thanks if you can help me sort it out.

I'm only using FLWM right now... but that -fn option for aterm is very promising... HOWEVER, when I try to edit the .wbar config file and .wmx/Applications/Terminal script to have "aterm -fn 10x20"... it is getting overwritten when I reboot... even though I took .wmx out of the .xfiletool.lst file and even putting .wbar and .wmx into filetool.lst (though I don't think that should be necessary, if the files were not clobbered on every boot).
So it seems FLWM is re-writting .wmx stuff and .wbar stuff each boot. Is there a way to avoid this, or change the template so "aterm" becomes "aterm -fn 10x20" each boot?

I considered using the lxterminal or gnome-terminal, but each of these has a dependency list that seems as long as my arm. :o I'm trying to keep the system fairly light, but, that said, I am using Firefox, so maybe most of the dependencies for one or the other is already mostly included.
Thanks, as always!

Hi MikeLockmoore
xinput is part of Xorg-7.7-bin.tcz. It is available in both 32 and 64 bit.
