Telnet has it's own copy of Monoco built in. I don't know, maybe it has
some special characters. Anyway, I removed it with ResEdit and now
Telnet uses the System TrueType Monoco and I can go up to 18 point on my
large monitor smoothly (I suppose I could go bigger if I wanted to figure
out how to add more sizes to the menu).
