Does anyone know why the IEM GUI and Pd fonts different sizes?  If  
you set a [cnv] to display text at Courier 10 bold and set the patch  
font as the same, the [cnv] text will be a different size that the  
fonts for comments, messages boxes, objects, etc.

Not only that, but the difference between the font sizes is different  
on different OS's and different versions of Pd.

Here are some examples:

If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of  
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an  
idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps  
it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into  
the possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess  
himself of it.            - Thomas Jefferson
