Stroke Font command (Settings menu)

This command changes the font used for vertex and face numbers from the default Windows font to a vector stroke font --- or vice versa.  The Windows font has good legibility but tends to be slow.  It also remains the same size, regardless of distance.  The stroke font is very fast and changes size in sympathy with distance.  A check mark appears next to the menu item when Stroke Fonts are in use.

When vertex and face numbers are displayed, the standard Windows bitmapped font greatly slows the display of objects with large numbers of faces.  Stroke fonts speed up the display enormously, but are less legible at small sizes.
