1. font size is specified per-application, which means that whatever app you use must be configured to use the font(s) of your choice. This can be slightly simplified by changing the font(s) for all gtk apps in .gtkrc

2. Nautilus is a Gnome application. DSL has no desktop environment, but it does have two file managers...emelfm or midnight commander.
You are always in your home when you start DSL.

whoa, someone got real lost. you know this is a damn small distro right? try using the 800x600 resolution ,everythings bigger. nautilus is nice in gnome, but if your using DSL your in fluxbox or jwm. you can grab the rox.dsl if you want a icon based file manager.
