You mean the default screen fonts for menus and such?
On the Macintosh, the menu items are Chicago, and the icon names are
Geneva; the serifed font used in a few windows is Monaco.
Under GS/OS, I believe everything is done in Shaston, which is kind of a
'Chicago meets Geneva' ugly thing, but very readable on a IIgs monitor.
Looks like crap on a printer, though... 8-)
