Follow-up Comment #3:

It's a little large, but I think we're down to aesthetics.  I was comparing to
the suggested 20 points and it is no where near as big as that.  See the
attached screenshot for a true 20 point font.

I'm dropping this down to a Feature Request.  I'm not sure why the drop-down
dialog isn't just using the fontsize that the rest of the GUI is through an
inheritance mechanism.  My guess is that this is easy to fix for someone who
understands Qt code.

The code to modify is in libgui/src/settings-dialog.cc.  I think the function
will be settings_dialog::read_lexer_settings.
