xchat uses gtk+2, and there is a gtk+2 interface for openoffice (package
name is summat like openoffice.org-gtk-gnome ).
you can change the font size with switch2 (in package gtk-theme-switch).
for gtk+ apps like XMMS use switch.
mozilla firefox and thunderbird also use gtk+2, but do not seem to
respect gtk font changes. I already filed bugs a while ago on this. If
anyone else is expieriencing the problem, it might help if you aknoledge
the bug in the BTS.
