i have some problems with the StaticText pattern in the guienv-lib.
i want to change the font style, and i tried some like this:

         Open ::< (# s : @TextStyle;
               do 'Times'->s.name;
               10->s.size;
               s[]->style; (*...*)

on intel, its ok, but on SunOs the program locks up.
i also tried another font name in the -adobe-times-*-*- something. 
-format, but that didnt work, too.

what do i have to do?
