Mac OS X anti-aliasing:
Dead_Ed writes "So by request, here's what you need to do to disable
system-wide antialiased text in Mac OS X
It's a Terminal "defaults" command, which mean you launch
Terminal.app and type the following command in. Be aware that this is
a user setting and not a system setting, so it won't affect other
users on your system.
defaults write CoreGraphics CGFontDisableAntialiasing YES
Some text will look rather nasty, so just play with what fonts you're
using and find one that looks decent. To get it back to "normal," you
can just change to NO:
defaults write CoreGraphics CGFontDisableAntialiasing NO
Enjoy!"
With some experimenting, we have found that, while this works great on
CRTs (text is less fuzzy), it actually makes text harder to read on
LCD displays.
