Is it possible to use variables in normal mode, and how ??
if by "normal mode" you mean Template Program Mode, then yes, but with difficulty. TPM is really an almost complete subset of GPM. The exceptions: in TPM:
  • you cannot use newlines. Everything must be on one line. Like GPM, statements are separated by semicolons
  • you should not use the { and } characters. They confuse the template parser (something tnat comes with python).

Is it possible to increase the size of the police inside the modele editor ?
No, but that is a good idea. I have added a font size box to the template editor. It should be in the next calibre release.
