ridicule away, i stand by my point.  industrial code is usually
commented in
rectilinear glory because that's how the programmers think the code
should
look to be professional.  if that much attention was spent on the code
itself
we might have better software.  often, in-house rules require such
attention
be paid, which is even crazier.

presotto: acme can change the font in a window, pretty much as you
described.  were you suggesting it be done differently?
