Make IDE $Console:Only output readably large
#1
How do I increase the output window and font sizes for   $Console:Only    Print output when the program is run from the IDE for test and debugging purposes?

On my HiDPI display, the output window is small and the text is tiny. 

It appears that  $Console:Only  is required for the program to be able to be run in linux in a nongraphics TTYn text console. Otherwise the program fails with a  Segmentation Error  .

if you are using linux.  this should be adjusted in the terminal emulator's configuration.  this should be most ridiculously easy.  with konsole on kde.  next up probably is xfce terminal.

at any rate.  the option should be easy.  to find the font and point size.

alternatively if you are on gnome.  you could change the dpi in the configuration.  but this affects *all* applications run on that desktop.

i haven't used windows in a while.  i have never used windows11.  so i don't know what to say from that end.  i know even less about macos.

remember that qb64 phoenix. requires "x11" libraries. which means it seeks a graphical desktop. it's not designed to be operated on a text-only "tty".
