How to enlarge everything for use with LCD TV

[npriess]

Hi,

I am currently using my macbook pro with my lcd tv which is positioned a few metres away.

In firefox it is no problem as cmd + will enlarge everything. But when navigating around with the finder, the text is way to small. Is there a quick way to fix this without changing my system preferences permanently?

Hold control + mouse wheel or scroll up (to zoom back out just scroll down).
