A possible solution
Authored by: wluh on Sep 01, '01 02:15:55AM

After hours of experimenting, I suspected the problem had to do with anti-aliasing of fonts. So I looked all over--environment variables, etc.

The root of my problem was TinkerTool. It set some setting (unfortunately I don't know what exactly it does to achieve this change) that controls in cocoa apps what point size below which no anti-aliasing occurs. If I just turn off this feature. Then my problems went away!

So the key, I think, is knowing how to set when cocoa apps choose to anti-alias fonts or not. Anyone have any idea why tinker tool messed things up?
