The /font command allows you to change the font for the current window. If no parameters are specified, the font dialog pops up, otherwise the specified parameters are used.

Synopsis

/font [-asbgilunkdmz|window] <fontsize> <fontname>

Switches

• -a - applies the setting to the active window
• -s - applies the setting to the status window
• -b - makes the font bold
• -i - makes the font italic
• -l - applies the setting to the channel list window
• -u - applies the setting to the url list window
• -n - applies the setting to the notify list window
• -k - applies the setting to the links window (/links)
• -g - applies the setting to the finger window (old feature that has been removed)
• -m - applies the setting to the message window (/dqwindow)
• -d - makes the font the default for that type of window
• -z - clears all font settings and sets all windows to the specified font. If no font is specified, all windows are set to default font settings

Parameters

• [window] - if none of the -azs switch is used, you must provide the name of a window instead
• <fontsize> - the size of the font, can be negative: it will then match the size of fonts in the font dialog
