Summary: small font/display change

Initial Comment:
I would like to propose a minor font change to make
text more readable.  First, in the console, make the
text regular rather than bold.  Usually regular fonts
are used in terminal windows and bold is only for
highlights.

-text .printout.text -relief raised -bd 2 -font
-*-courier-bold--normal--12-* +text .printout.text -relief raised -bd 2 -font
-*-courier-regular--normal--12-* 
Secondly, courier is not a font meant for reading text,
but rather terminals and things like that.  So I
propose changing the default font in text windows (not
used very often) to Times Regular 14 point.

-    text $name.text -relief raised -bd 2 -font
-*-courier-bold--normal--12-* +    text $name.text -relief raised -bd 2 -font
-*-times-regular--normal--14-* 
Attached is a diff patch file.  This should work on all
platforms since those fonts are already used within Pd.
 Lastly is a Mac OS X only change:  setting minimun
line size for anti-aliasing.  If set to 1 or 0, then
every line will be anti-aliased.  While this makes
connections and circles in [bng] and such look really
good, it makes boxes and messages look out of focus. 
Setting this to 2 makes it so only the thick audio rate
connections are anti-aliased

+	 set tk::mac::CGAntialiasLimit 2
