Why not use `text-scale-adjust`? This function has convenient
bindings in the form `C-x C-+` to increase text size, `C-x C--` to
decrease, and `C-x C-0` to reset to default size. Furthermore,
once you press any of these, you can simply use `+`, `-` and `0`
for increasing, decreasing and resetting until you've found your
preferred text size.
