How to Change the Font Size in Python Shell?

To change the font size in the Python shell (specifically referring to the IDLE which is the standard Python GUI), follow these steps:

  1. Open IDLE: Start the Python IDLE on your computer.

  2. Access the Settings:

    • On Windows/Linux: Go to Options �� Configure IDLE.
    • On macOS: Go to IDLE �� Preferences.
  3. Font/Size: In the Configure IDLE window:

    • Under the Font/Tabs tab, you'll see a Font section.
    • From here, you can change the font name, font size, and font style.
    • Select a font size from the Size list to increase or decrease the font size according to your preference.
  4. Apply Changes: Click on Apply or OK to save your changes and then close the settings window.

  5. View Changes: You should now see the text in the Python shell displayed in the new font size you selected.

Remember, if you're talking about another Python interactive environment or a different Python shell (e.g., IPython, Jupyter Notebook, etc.), the process might be different. The steps provided above are specifically for the default IDLE that comes with Python installations.
