This is the +same as \fB\-n 0\fP. +.TP 8 +.B \-1 +This option indicates that listings should use a single column. This is the +same as \fB\-n 1\fP. +.TP 8 +.B \-w \fIwidth\fP +This option specifies the width in characters that should be used in +figuring out how many columns to print. The default is 79. +.TP 8 +.B \-n \fIcolumns\fP +This option specifies the number of columns to use in displaying the output. +By default, it will attempt to fit as many columns of font names into the +number of character specified by \fB\-w \fIwidth\fR. +.TP 8 +.B \-u +This option indicates that the output should be left unsorted. +.TP 8 +.B \-o +This option indicates that \fIxlsfonts\fP should do an \fBOpenFont\fP (and +\fBQueryFont\fP, if appropriate) rather than a \fBListFonts\fP. This is +useful if \fBListFonts\fP or \fBListFontsWithInfo\fP fail to list a known +font (as is the case with some scaled font systems). +.TP 8 +.B \-fn \fIpattern\fP +This option specifies the font name pattern to match. +.PP +.SH "SEE ALSO" +X(1), Xserver(1), xset(1), xfd(1), +.I "X Logical Font Description Conventions" +.SH ENVIRONMENT +.TP 8 +.B DISPLAY +to get the default host and display to use. +.SH BUGS +Doing ``xlsfonts -l'' can tie up your server for a very long time. +This is really a bug with single-threaded non-preemptable servers, not with +this program. +.SH AUTHOR +Mark Lillibridge, MIT Project Athena; Jim Fulton, MIT X Consortium; +Phil Karlton, SGI |
