If you're using a Mac (like me 
) press the Apple key and the + key. Repeat as needed to get the size you want.

Another cool Mac trick is hold down the control key and use your mouse's scroll wheel, the whole screen will increase/decrease magnification. I don't know if there's an equivalent function on windows (and I certainly don't want to start an OS war...).
If it doesn't work, check the settings in the Universal Access pref panel.

Just remember that to hit +, you also need to press the shift key.
So on a PC, CTRL-SHIFT-+ will enlarge the font, keep holding CTRL-SHIFT and tapping + will make it increasingly larger.
CTRL - (no shift) will make it smaller, holding CTRL and tapping - repeatedly will make it increasingly smaller.
