[Msys2-users] Windows font question

[Bill L. <Bi...@WR...>]

I have installed and am using Msys2 on a Windows system. Now that I have 
some code working, the question has arisen on how to change the font 
and/or the font size when that application is being run by someone else.

When the application is started, it comes automatically with a "Font" 
and "Paste" tags at the top. I can access the "Font" tab and it will 
allow me to select alternate fonts and sizes. But the application ALWAYS 
starts with "Courier New" at  9pt.

What do I need to do to make the application start with some other font?

My standard Msys2 environment is this:
