Try to fix this issue by creating a ".gtkrc-2.0" file in your home
directory with the following content:
gtk-font-name="Sans Serif 12"

OK, I need to define this a little further. In my original post I stated that
I used grsync for backups - as root. The problem is as root. My GTK apps as
a user work as expected. Nevertheless I tried your suggestion as above, both
in the user and in root. In both places there is a gtkrc-2-kde file which
correctly shows the font type, and size as defined in the personal sttings >
appearance >gtk styles.

Have you created the file called .gtkrc-2.0 in /root directory? It is
not clear from your answer that you created this file or only edited
the .gtkrc-2.0-kde file. The file .gtkrc-2.0-kde will not have any effect.


This defines the font type and size used by gtk applications.
Increasing the number from 12 to higher results in bigger fonts.
You can change font type according to your like as well.

The following line defines the gtk style:
gtk-theme-name="Clorophyll"

One more thing: if the theme name is not correct (or theme is not available ?)
the application may not start.

Nope, but thanks for trying. I hope somebody can come up with a solution for
this. FWIW all of the apps in root have this problem. The Gimp, Firefox.etc
but I don't really care because I never do anything as root. I just need
grsync for my backups.

In my system editing ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file has effect on all gtk programs
including grsync for every user including root.
