10Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup has a a very small font by default. On a 4k display, it
11is barely readable. This is how I made it playable.
12
13Make a file `~/.crawlrc` with the following content:
14
15```ini
16# Adjust the sizes to your liking.
17
18tile_font_crt_size = 32
19tile_font_stat_size = 32
20tile_font_msg_size = 32
21tile_font_tip_size = 32
22tile_font_lbl_size = 32
23tile_sidebar_pixels = 64
24```
25
26To zoom in and out in viewport, press `Ctrl+` and `Ctrl-` respectively.

28All the possible options are documented in the [Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup Options
29Guide](https://github.com/crawl/crawl/blob/master/crawl-ref/docs/options_guide.txt)
