What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Eclipse, then eclipse-fonts.
2. Try it on a *.java or *.scala file; the buttons have no effect.
3. Try it on a *.sc file (or probably many others); it works.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect it to change the size of the font in whatever window I am in.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Indigo, Linux Mint LMDE

Please provide any additional information below.
The problem appears to be that eclipse-fonts changes "Text Font", but Scala and 
Java use "Java Editor Text Font".  When I brought up the Preferences window, 
selected "Java Editor Text Font", pressed Reset, that told it to use "Text 
Font" settings, and then the buttons worked in Scala/Java code.

If eclipse-fonts cannot figure out which font category is actually being used, 
perhaps this should be documented on the home page?

In any case, thanks so much for this capability -- it absolutely astonishes me 
that this isn't built into Eclipse.  I collaborate with other folks (over Skype 
or over my shoulder) all the time, and they need me to temporarily increase my 
font size.  Surely *lots* of folks do the same...

p.s.  It might actually work for .java / .scala files if you haven't made 
adjustments to the font.
