NAME
       xlsfonts - server font list displayer for X

SYNOPSIS
       xlsfonts [-display host:dpy] [-l] [-ll] [-lll] [-m] [-C] [-1] [-w width] [-n columns] [-u] [-o] [-fn pattern]
       xlsfonts -printer printername [-l] [-ll] [-lll] [-m] [-C] [-1] [-w width] [-n columns] [-u] [-o] [-r resolution] [-b]
       [-B] [-g] [-G] [-x mode] [-X mode] [-fn pattern]

DESCRIPTION
       xlsfonts lists the fonts that match the given pattern.  The wildcard character "*" may be used to match any sequence of
       characters (including none), and "?" to match any single character.  If no pattern is given, "*" is assumed.

       The "*" and "?" characters must be quoted to prevent them from being expanded by the shell.

OPTIONS
       -display host:dpy
              This option specifies the X server to contact.

       -printer printername
              This option specifies the Xprint printer to contact.

       -d host:dpy
              Same as -display host:dpy.

       -p printername
              Same as -printer printername.

       -l     Lists some attributes of the font on one line in addition to its name.

       -ll    Lists font properties in addition to -l output.

       -lll   Lists character metrics in addition to -ll output.

       -m     This option indicates that long listings should also print the minimum and maximum bounds of each font.

       -C     This option indicates that listings should use multiple columns.  This is the same as -n 0.

       -1     This option indicates that listings should use a single column.  This is the same as -n 1.

       -w width
              This option specifies the width in characters that should be used in figuring out how many columns to print.  The
              default is 79.

       -n columns
              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 -w width.

       -u     This option indicates that the output should be left unsorted.

       -o     This option indicates that xlsfonts should do an OpenFont (and QueryFont, if appropriate) rather than a ListFonts.
              This is useful if ListFonts or ListFontsWithInfo fail to list a known font (as is the case with some scaled font
              systems).

       -r resolutionname
              Set print resolution name (usually values like 300dpi or 300x600, see output of xplsprinters).  This may alter the
              output of xlsfonts if there are printer fonts which get enabled/disabled on per-resolution basis by the DDX.

              (printer mode only)

       -b     List printer builtin fonts.  This is the same as -x xp-list-internal-printer-fonts.

              (printer mode only)

       -B     Do not list printer builtin fonts.  This is the same as -X xp-list-internal-printer-fonts.

              (printer mode only)

       -g     List glyph fonts.  This is the same as -x xp-list-glyph-fonts.

              (printer mode only)

       -G     Do not list glyph fonts.  This is the same as -X xp-list-glyph-fonts.

              (printer mode only)

       -x mode
              Enable listfont mode mode.

              Supported modes are:

              xp-listinternal-printer-fonts
                     If xp-listinternal-printer-fonts was set (via option -b or -x xp-listinternal-printer-fonts xlsfonts will
                     include all of the fonts defined as internal printer fonts.

              xp-list-glyph-fonts
                     If xp-list-glyph-fonts was set (via option -g or -x xp-list-glyph-fonts) xlsfonts will include all of the
                     fonts available to the server which have glyphs associated with them.


       The default value is implicitly determined by the ddx driver to be the all of the listfonts modes specified in the
       xp-listfonts-modes-supported printer attribute.


       The value of xp-listfonts-modes-supported and xp-listfonts-modes (the defaults) can be looked-up via xplsprinters(1).


       (printer mode only)

       -X mode
              Disable listfont mode mode.  See option -x for a list of valid mode values.

              (printer mode only)

       -fn pattern
              This option specifies the font name pattern to match.

ENVIRONMENT
       DISPLAY
              DISPLAY must be set to get the default host and display to use.

       XPSERVERLIST
              XPSERVERLIST must be set for the -printer option identifying the available Xprint servers.  See Xprint(7) for more
              details.

BUGS
       Doing ``xlsfonts -l'' can tie up your server for a very long time.  This is really a bug with single-threaded non-pre-
       emptable servers, not with this program.
