I live in an ancient apartment and last night I leaned on the window sill only to cause small cracks in the wood and paint to appear, as you can see in the photo.
What would you recommend for cosmetically repairing the cracks? I don't care to replace the sill completely right now.

Any wood filler that cures will be fine. (Avoid things labeled "non hardening"... these sometimes have "putty" in the name.) Sand it smooth (120 grit sandpaper, with the grain), then try your best to match the paint.
That does look like it's about to break off, though. Don't lean on it any more.
