| IIRC, if you can't do what's required via KControl you need to apt

In my experimenting I've managed to make things worse. In KControl there's
a check box "Apply colors to non-TDE applications. I unchecked it and it
did not fix the problem, but it did make menus in both TED and non-TED
applications very tiny indeed; also the text in, for instance, KMail --
*all* of KMail. I quickly rechecked it, but it did not revert to the way
it was before, so I now have tiny text all over the place. No fun. Still
trying to figure out how changing colors in non-TDE applications should
have changed the font size in pretty much everything.
