edit....preferences...interface.... choose a nice font like sans 12.

That does look horrible...using xvesa video? the dpi has been fiddled with on puppy...might be a factor too

Not sure why '80s terminal fonts are needed in a X/gui text editor...

ps...now if I could change that painful white background I would be happy :D

Mikeb,

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Amazing difference!
I was able to push my eyes back into their original position and easily read code in Geany again. :)

Selvam, thanks for your question!
