Can Xvesa also enlarge the screen image somehow?

I cannot read the gs display in X. Formerly I used vgalib and bmv
and could enlarge that way. Myabe gs has some switch that I can
use instead.

Maybe a screen magnifying program (like the magnifier that comes with
Window 95) is what you want? For instance, dynamag or xmag?

A search on dynamag brought up a lot of technology but not software.
xmag takes a square on the screen and enlarges each pixel to a small square - this would not help at all in increasing resolution. I may just have to set up Xfree86 for use with ghostscript in order to improve resolution.
