I simply added the patch, which included:

- adding controls in the SettingsDialog.
- new code that transfers the control values to the settings.
- new code that loads the current settings into the controls on constructing a SettingsDialog.

I have submitted a patch to QTerminal to be able to change the font also in Windows.

https://code.google.com/p/qterminal/issues/detail?id=4

The patch attached to this (Savannah) bug report has been tested on Linux and Windows.

The terminal font is fixed and cannot be changed.

The attached patch adds a tab to the settings dialog to change the font of the terminal view. The user can choose the font family and point size, and the terminal font is updated accordingly.

This only currently works on Linux and Mac, because the QTerminal component in Windows does not allow to change the terminal font. I am working on a patch for QTerminal to enable users-set fonts.
