I think the most users change the WinMerge font at the first time they use the program and not many times. And the font size can change easily with "Zoom In/Out".

So in my opinion could be the font selection good moved to the options. In this case could be the font name and font size also shown in a textbox, like "Arial, 12pt":

+-File compare------------------+
| |
| "Courier, 10pt" [Select Font] |
| |
| [Use Default Font] |
| |
+-------------------------------+

+-Folder compare----------------+
| |
| "Arial, 12pt" [Select Font] |
| |
| [Use Default Font] |
| |
+-------------------------------+

"..." = Readonly Textbox
[...] = Button

Greetings,
Tim

    Good point. Font selection isn't needed in the menu.

    Not sure if you meant it, but I'd rather have one tab for selecting fonts for both file- and folder compare.

    I think at *one* property page with *two* group boxes. One group box for "File compare" and one for "Folder compare". SF.net broke my nice ASCII art. ;-)
