I'm partially blind, and constantly find myself squinting and straining to see what I'm selecting in the project window (Which is one of TM's strengths IMO).
I've tried using http://headfirstproductions.ca/modifying-textmate-drawer-font-size/ , but my lack of familiarity with IB and XCode has left me unable to actually make this work reliably.
I would pay another $20-30 for this one feature alone.

Presumably you know about zooming the screen (System preferences -> Universal Access) or the other thing you can do is to change to a lower monitor resolutions (System preferences -> Displays) but this will effect everything.

Screen zoom is great, but, having to zoom and unzoom the screen _every time_ I want to access the project drawer kind of negates its usefulness, don'tcha think?
As to dropping my screen resolution, that is a viable option, but an untenable one - I realize That's The Way It Is, I was wistfully hoping for a better solution.
Losing screen real estate just for TextMate when *every other app* on my system allows me to adjust every font it uses willy nilly seems a smidge silly.

Revision 1624 now has a defaults for the drawer font size. At the time of writing, this is only available as an (intel) test build: Go to Preferences → Software Update and hold down option (⌥) when clicking Check Now.
See release notes for instructions.
Allan,
I probably need this much less than the original poster .... but I recently got a HighRes display and increasing font size by just one point makes a nice difference.
Thank you! Daniel

This is what I get for ignoring my E-mail - Christmas came early, and I missed it! :)
Thank you Allan, what an enormous difference!
