thank you.

i decided i am about equally ok with increasing all buffers including
minibuffer / echo area.  i could not find a buffer switch hook.
however, i can't seem to find minibuffer or echo area buffer in the
buffer list:

(dolist (buffer (buffer-list))
    (with-current-buffer buffer
      (text-scale-increase amount)))

works for only regular buffers.  i presume they are supposed to be
done separately?


i noticed that (default-font-width) is not in emacs 24.  i presume it
got added in a later version.
