 Here is how to increase the print
 size in the terminal for those who
 need it (a good quick-start for
 technically-minded low-vision users
 or developers); I think this should
 be on the wiki somewhere but I'm
 not sure where - can someone put it
 in the right place please?

 Press Alt-0 to get into the
 developer console, and the last tab
 is the terminal.  Type
 nano ~/.sugar/default/terminalrc
 find the line saying Font =
 Monospace 8, change it to Monospace
 16 or whatever you want, press
 Control-X and answer Yes to save,
 then close the developer console
 (the tiny tiny X in the top
 right-hand corner) and re-open it
 with Alt-0, the terminal should
 now be in a larger print.
