[PD] font in 0.50

[Miller Puckette]

Hi Rolf -

I compared 0.49 and 0.50.  It looks to me like the 64 bit version of 0.49 and
0.50, and the 32 bit version of 0.49, all look the same, but the 32-bit
version of 0.49 has everything larger and smudgy-looking (apparently
because Tcl/Tk was rescaling everything).  The i386 version of 0.49
shipped with Tcl/tk 8.5.10 and 0.50 with 8.5.19, which fixed various other
problems.

>From the command line you can run Pd with "-font 16" for instance to get
boxes bigger in new patches, but the only way to see an existing patch
bigger is to use "zoom".  Unfortunately, patches don't remember their
zoom state (I now think that they probably should).

cheers
Miller
