With the patch, I do indeed see bold numbers. And the stars are there as well.
On the printing issue: It's really the size. In print.c, in set_font, if I manually divide the size parameter by a number around 20.0, it looks ok-ish. Without the number, there the second argument to pango_font_description_set_size is set to values like
Setting font size to 153.600000
Setting font size to 128.000000
Setting font size to 153.600000
Setting font size to 106.666667
Setting font size to 106.666667
Setting font size to 106.666667
Setting font size to 106.666667
Setting font size to 106.666667
Setting font size to 106.666667
Setting font size to 106.666667
Setting font size to 106.666667
as a printf shows. I don't know if those numbers are ok and the outcome is too big or if those numbers are too big. A hack to fix this would of course be to multiply here by a fudge factor of about 0.05 if running on a Mac…
Sorry, have to go, don't have time to check this on a different computer.
Robert
