     NAME
            SetFont - Allows user to specify the text font, size, 
        and style used in a particular shell window.

     SYNOPSIS
            SETFONT fontname fontsize [SCALE] [PROP] [ITALIC] 
        [BOLD] [UNDERLINE]

     DESCRIPTION
            You can use this program to change the System Default 
        Text font without using the System Font Prefrences 
        program. 

     KEYWORDS

        fontname
            The name of the font to install. It can be a system 
        bitmapped or scalable outline font.

        fontsize
            The point size of the font. A scalable outline font 
        will be scaled to fit that size. If a bitmapped of that 
        size does not exist then the next closest size will be 
        used.

        SCALE
            This enables bitmapped scaling. In other words, if 
        you specify a font size that does not exist then one will 
        be created from the characters of the next closest size.

        PROP
            The optional keyword that lets you use proportional 
        fonts. If you try to use a proportional font without this 
        keyword then you will get an error message that says: 
        'Object not of required type'. Warning: There are some 
        proportional fonts that will not print correctly in a 
        console window.

        ITALIC
        Prints the font in the italic format.

        BOLD
        Prints the font in the bold format.

        UNDERLINE
        Prints the font underlined.


        EXAMPLES:

        1. To change the font to a scaled version of Seista font
           which is 12 points high:

        SETFONT Seista 12 SCALE


        2. To change the font in the current shell to a bold 
           underlined version of the proportional Ruby font, 
           16 points high:

        SETFONT Ruby 16 BOLD UNDERLINE PROP
