And yes, I'm a crusty dinosaur who won't adapt to the modern times; my
windows are 80x24, with the occasional 80x40, but occasionally using wide
screens for side-by-side diffs ("sdiff" is a wonderful tool), etc. I also
have poor eyesight, so I can't use small fonts.
At last, some honesty :-) Beats hand-wavy rationalizations for doing it the
way that one likes.
Having only a 32" monitor on my desk I can actually make the fonts smaller
than I can read with my old eyes even though they're still crisp. Been
considering getting a cheap 65" UHD TV as a monitor that I can hang on my
wall. Would eliminate the problems with farsightedess. Would also free
up a bunch of desk space.
