Hi Mandar,

There are two places in Sparky file

sparky/python/sparky/tkutil.py

just a few lines apart that have font = Courier. If you change
both to font = Courier 12 then both the Select applicable translations
list heading and the list entries of the atom names translation dialog will
use a 12 point font. Ive made this change in the Sparky source code so it
will be in a future release. All other Sparky extensions that use list boxes
use this same tkutil.py code so they should all show the bigger font.

The Tk documentation says if the font size is not specified then a
platform-specific default is used but I couldnt find where that default
is given. Testing Tk shows it is a 6 point font on my Redhat Enterprise
Linux 4 system.
