Hi Richard,

A quick hack you might find useful before somebody comes up with something
better - edit file zenmapGUI/NmapOutputViewer.py, find the following line
(number 153 in my source code copy):

self.tag_font.set_property("family", "Monospace")

And add the following below, with the same indentation:

self.tag_font.set_property("font", "Monospace 14")

The "14" is the value you will probably want to tweak. Also, please post a
screenshot of what it looks like on your computer so we might have a better
picture of what might be the problem.

Yours,
Jacek Wielemborek
