That made me rediscover a flaw in the design: changing the
font size changes it for all instances of the shell (and also
all instances of 4OS2) rather than for just one application.

The design of what?  The WPS?  You can change to font size of
one session without changing the size system wide.  Use the
Change button, not the Save button.

I'm aware of that, but I want it saved, so that I don't have to
change the font size every time I run this particular program.

I should look into where the font size is saved to. It might be
saved in the extended attributes of the shell. If so, there could
be a way to add the relevant information to the extended attributes
of one program object, without affecting the global command shell
font.

It is saved in the USER INI file, as a two-byte character value
(first byte is VIO cell size cols, second is rows) of the 'Shield'
application. The name of the key under which this value is stored is
 language-dependent, and it starts with or at least has a tilde (~)
character in it. I just set it on a VM and it seems to be '~Font
Size...' in English ArcaOS.
