You can change this yourself, using a Resource Editor.
On my Windows 10 system,
the "Extended History" Dialog is located in the file English.dll
in the C:\Program Files\JPSoft\TCMD32 folder.
It is Dialog 1465 in that .dll
The font is
I changed mine to
Caveat emptor: Installing a new release of TCMD/TCC means that you must use a Resource Editor to change the font size in the Dialog on the new English.dll
Caveat emptor: Make a backup of the English.dll file before making changes to it, just in case.
Remember to exit/start TCC after making changes, so that the updated English.dll gets loaded into memory.

I consider myself a Resource Editor,
not a hacker.
I've had to modify the programs that I use,
such as Visual Basic 6.0,
and other programs,
in order to increase the font size,
so that I am able to easily read the text.
Karl Peterson demonstrated how to do this many years ago.

EXCELLENT JOE 
- tuned a few other dialogs while I was in there. Now I'm off to dig in to other apps that drive me crazy since I migrated to 4k. Windows scaling and text size settings has helped in many instances but not always.
What did you use? I spun up an old dev box where I still had VS installed. I have some resource tools I used 15 years ago but they don't work on 64-bit binaries.

Visual Studio Community 2022 is what I use for editing dialogs on 64-bit binaries.
Visual Studio Community 2022 is actually overkill,
if all you want to do is edit dialogs in a binary.
If you do not want to bloat your system with VS2022,
you could also use Resource Hacker,
which is more lite weight than VS2022,
as the focus of the program
is as a resource compiler
& decompiler for Windows applications.
