changing the font size in Xdialog

[Pierre Frenkiel <pierre.frenkiel@gmail.com>]

hi,
I would like to change the size of the font used by Xdialog.
The --fontsel option gives a wide choice, but after that, I found no
way the its output.
I wrote the following bigfont.rc file

   style 'big_font' {
     fg[NORMAL] = { 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 }
     bg[NORMAL] = { 0.0, 0.0, 1.0 }
     font = "-b&h-lucida-medium-r-normal-*-*-240-*-*-p-*-iso10646-1"
   }

   widget '*' style 'big_font'

and then did something like:
   Xdialog --rc-file bigfont.rc --msgbox "--rc-file demonstration" 0 0

the color information from bigfont.rc is actually used, but not the font.

Any idea?

best regards,
