Dunno about the fonts; on my system (UX50 with FontsOS5 on it) the font is
whatever I set the system font to.  So I can have a tiny font, huge font
or anything in-between.  And FontsOS5 lets me select a different font set
for each application, so I currently have a thinner smaller font for DB
than for everything else, so as to get more data on-screen.  (One of these
months I will get Landscape support for the UX50 in there. <g>)

On the warnings, I built a new prc without the large database warning and
mailed it to a few people.  One of them may mail it to you today or I'll
do it this evening.  A newer build without that problem is probably
available from CVS but has other significantly-modified code too.
