Histogram Look

Hi,

I want to change global defaults to make my histograms look nicer.
Ideally, I would like to put the changes in my rootlogon.C file, so that
everything I plot would have these settings. Some of the things I would
like to change are

1) the default font (and font size) in the stats box
2) the default font (and font size) on the axis labels
3) the default title font and size
4) the distance between the axis labels and the axis
5) the borders of the histogram within the pad
6) perhaps the position of the stats box?

It would be nice if these new settings were used regardless of what I
plotted, a histogram, a graph, or whatever.

Another things that would be nice: when I have a plot with a stats
box, and then superimpose another plot with the "SAME" option, I would
also like to get a stats box for the second plot, perhaps underneath the
first, or maybe a new stats box with info from both plots, (or both plots
and their respective fits). I realize this is a lot to ask, but is it
possible? Again, it would be nice if it could be set up as the default
behavior everytime I use a ->Draw(..) command.

Thanks,

Scott
