Also, the good thing about a standard default font is it is very easy to tell if the file has specified a font. </rant>
I hope the zoom enhancement doesn't fall into that category. This feature is only needed in code view and it certainly doesn't need to be a part of a preferences dialog box. All that is needed is to set all files to whatever zoom value was selected and it need be only retained for the current session.

P.S. My vote for a plug-in language is Python. Although I haven't done any coding in many years I would probably give Python a shot. While doing some conversions earlier today, I couldn't help but wish for the zoom enhancement and couple of plug-ins (change case and convert roman numerals).
