Changing Finder's font

[Deja Q]

Hello. The Finder currently uses some variant of what looks like Lucinda.

I have a font that looks like a Mac font of way-back-when, which I would prefer to use.

What applications, if possible, can change Finder's font?

Thx!

1. You need a 3rd party app to do that

google: Change Default OS X Font and you will find a ton of them. Or click on this link to have it done for you: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Change+Default+OS+X+Font

BTW: the default font in OS X Finder is Geneva. (Keyboard and Lucida Grande are also used but not in Finder).

Terminal aplication needs Monaco and Address Book requires Helvetica to function correctly. Most of the time you'll see Geneva. )

2. Yup, and I've used all those (hence my specifically saying "Finder")

:)

"Silk", good as it is, won't change it either. :( (it changed everything else, of course. :) )

Maybe this will be changed in OS X 10.6 -- I miss the Chicago font and this rounded font lacks style.
