IMO, the failure of @iAWriter to expose font settings even as a user default is an example of arrogance rather than adherence to principle.

@warrenm …If you don’t mind me asking, what would you prefer to change the font size to?
@iAWriter It's more the typeface than the font size, but I'd like to go down to 12pt, in a monospace of my choosing: http://twitpic.com/cq85t0

@warrenm Umm, wow :O :) Please try holding a paperback novel at your normal reading distance & comparing type size to the screen… -
@iAWriter Your argument doesn't cover my use case. I want to write in greater privacy on public transit. -
@warrenm Aah, thank you for mentioning this. If you’re using a phone, have you considered a privacy screen protector? -
@iAWriter Certainly! Just wanted to add one more voice for configurability, even if the settings are buried in user defaults, etc. -
@warrenm This is a tough challenge for us as a *lack* of settings is one of Writer’s core features (and probably our defining one)… -
@iAWriter Sure, but if I in the privacy of my home could just say "defaults write com.iawriter TypefaceName Menlo", etc., I'd be happy.
