List Font is a hack that allows you to change the font and size used in directory dialog file lists, and display the real icons of files in such lists. It requires System 7. I call it a hack because it uses undocumented system information, and may break the next time Apple releases a new System.
Displaying the real icons requires querying the desktop database, which may cause noticeable delay and disk activity.
Compatibility
List Font is compatible with my own Open-wide and with Now╒s Super Boomerang. In fact, version 3.2 or later of Open-wide knows how to cooperate with List Font, so as to stretch the file list to a height that is a whole multiple of the font height.
List Font will not work with Norton╒s Directory Assistance II.
This program is provided as is, and is not guaranteed.
Distribution
List Font is copyrighted freeware. It may be redistributed, but not sold for a profit, so long as it remains unchanged. Of course, if you *want* to send me some money for it, you can.
