We recently installed CentOS 7 on a system. We chose the GNOME desktop install option and have used yum to install all of the available updates.? The first run of yum update yielded about 450 megabytes of items to be installed or updated. All of the updates have been successful. One issue with our new CentOS system is that some users want to use gedit, but the displayed font size is extremely small. Internet searches for a way to increase font size have not yielded any useful information. Is there a standard method to make the gedit font size larger? Thanks.

Or you can use gsettings. #Get the font and size gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface monospace-font-name #Set the font and size gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface monospace-font-name 'monospace 15' Let me know if this helps. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
