The +characters are shown in increasing order from left to right, top to +bottom. The first character displayed at the top left will be character +number 0 unless the \fB\-start\fP option has been supplied in which case the +character with the number given in the \fB\-start\fP option will be used. +.PP +The characters are displayed in a grid of boxes, each large enough to hold +any single character in the font. Each character glyph is drawn using +the PolyText16 request (used by the \fIXlib\fP routine \fBXDrawString16\fP) +or the XftDrawString32 routine, depending on whether the \fB\-fn\fP or +\fB\-fa\fP option was given. +If the \fB\-box\fP option is given, a rectangle will be drawn around each +character, showing where an ImageText16 request (used by the \fIXlib\fP +routine \fBXDrawImageString16\fP) would cause background color to be displayed. +.PP +The origin of each glyph is normally set so that the character is drawn in +the upper left hand corner of the grid cell. However, if a glyph has a +negative left bearing or an unusually large ascent, descent, or right bearing +(as is the case with \fIcursor\fP font), some character may not appear in their +own grid cells. The \fB\-center\fP option may be used to force all glyphs to +be centered in their respective cells. +.PP +All the characters in the font may not fit in the window at once. +To see the next page of glyphs, press the \fINext\fP button at the top +of the window. To see the previous page, press \fIPrev\fP. To exit \fIxfd\fP, +press \fIQuit\fP. +.PP +Individual character metrics (index, width, bearings, ascent and descent) can +be displayed at the top of the window by clicking on the desired character. +.PP +The font name displayed at the top of the window is the full name of the +font, as determined by the server. See \fIxlsfonts\fP and \fIfc-list\fP +for ways to generate lists of fonts, as well as more detailed summaries of +their metrics and properties. +.SH "OPTIONS" +.PP +.I xfd +accepts all of the standard toolkit command line options along with +the additional options listed below: +.TP 8 +.B \-fn \fIfont\fP +This option specifies the core X server side font to be displayed. +This can also be set with +the FontGrid \fBfont\fP resource. A font must be specified. +.TP 8 +.B \-fa \fIfont\fP +This option specifies a Xft font to be displayed. This can also be set with +the FontGrid \fBface\fP resource. A font pattern must be specified. +.TP 8 +.B \-box +This option indicates that a box should be displayed outlining the area +that would be filled with background color by an ImageText request. +This can also be set with +the FontGrid \fBboxChars\fP resource. The default is False. +.TP 8 +.B \-center +This option indicates that each glyph should be centered in its grid. +This can also be set with +the FontGrid \fBcenterChars\fP resource. The default is False. +.TP 8 +.B \-start \fInumber\fP +This option specifies the glyph index of the upper left hand corner of the +grid. This is used to view characters at arbitrary locations in the font. +This can also be set with +the FontGrid \fBstartChar\fP resource. The default is 0. +.TP 8 +.B \-bc \fIcolor\fP +This option specifies the color to be used if ImageText boxes are drawn. +This can also be set with +the FontGrid \fBboxColor\fP resource. +.TP 8 +.B \-rows \fInumrows\fP +This option specifies the number of rows in the grid. +This can also be set with +the FontGrid \fBcellRows\fP resource. +.TP 8 +.B \-columns \fInumcols\fP +This option specifies the number of columns in the grid. +This can also be set with +the FontGrid \fBcellColumns\fP resource. +.SH WIDGETS +In order to specify resources, it is useful to know the +widgets which compose \fIxfd\fR. In the notation below, indentation +indicates hierarchical structure. The widget class name is given first, +followed by the widget instance name. +The application class name is Xfd. +.sp +.nf +.ta .5i 1.0i 1.5i 2.0i 2.5i 3.0i 3.5i 4.0i 4.5i 5.0i 5.5i 6.0i 6.5i 7.0i +Xfd xfd + Paned pane + Label fontname + Box box + Command quit + Command prev + Command next + Label select + Label metrics + Label range + Label start + Form form + FontGrid grid +.fi +.SH FONTGRID RESOURCES +The FontGrid widget is an application-specific widget, and a subclass +of the Simple widget in the Athena widget set. The effects and +instance names of this widget's resources are given in the +\fBOPTIONS\fP section. Capitalize the first letter of the resource +instance name to get the corresponding class name. +.SH APPLICATION SPECIFIC RESOURCES +The instance names of the application specific resources +are given below. Capitalize the first letter of the resource +instance name to get the corresponding class name. +These resources are unlikely to be interesting unless you are localizing +xfd for a different language. +.TP 8 +.B selectFormat +Specifies a printf-style format string used to display information +about the selected character. The default is "character 0x%02x%02x +(%u,%u) (%#o,%#o)". The arguments that will come after the format string are +char.byte1, char.byte2, char.byte1, char.byte2, char.byte1, char.byte2. +char.byte1 is byte 1 of the selected character. +char.byte2 is byte 2 of the selected character. +.TP 8 +.B metricsFormat +Specifies a printf-style format string used to display character +metrics. The default is "width %d; left %d, right %d; ascent %d, +descent %d (font %d, %d)". The arguments that will come after the +format string are the character metrics width, lbearing, rbearing, +character ascent, character descent, font ascent, and font descent. +.TP 8 +.B rangeFormat +Specifies a printf-style format string used to display the range of +characters currently being displayed. The default is "range: +0x%02x%02x (%u,%u) thru 0x%02x%02x (%u,%u)". The arguments that will +come after the format string are the following fields from the +XFontStruct that is returned from opening the font: +min_byte1, min_char_or_byte2, min_byte1, min_char_or_byte2, +max_byte1, max_char_or_byte2, max_byte1, max_char_or_byte2. +.TP 8 +.B startFormat +Specifies a printf-style format string used to display information +about the character at the upper left corner of the font grid. The +default is "upper left: 0x%04x (%d,%d)". The arguments that will come +after the format string are the new character, the high byte of the new +character, and the low byte of the new character. +.TP 8 +.B nocharFormat +Specifies a printf-style format string to display when the selected +character does not exist. The default is "no such character +0x%02x%02x (%u,%u) (%#o,%#o)". The arguments that will come after the +format string are the same as for the \fBselectFormat\fP resource. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +X(__miscmansuffix__), xlsfonts(__appmansuffix__), xrdb(__appmansuffix__), xfontsel(__appmansuffix__), fc-list(__appmansuffix__), +fonts.conf(__filemansuffix__), +.I "X Logical Font Description Conventions" +.SH "BUGS" +The program should skip over pages full of non-existent characters. +.SH AUTHOR +Jim Fulton, MIT X Consortium; previous program of the same name by +Mark Lillibridge, MIT Project Athena. + |
