As far as I know, you can't change the font in the Javascript window. As
to the flickers, did you use a lot of \ \ (backslashes) in your drawing?
And did you make sure that all of the \ \ (backslashes) were preceded by
an extra \ (backslash) for each one? Sometimes if one or two have been
missed, that will make the animation jump around.

But any Javascripting questions you have can most likely be answered in
The Omega's forum at:

Sorry I can't be more helpful.
