tomwalters@0: 
tomwalters@0: Display the font for each font name found in the current font search path
tomwalters@0: which matches a given name_pattern.
tomwalters@0: Each name_pattern may contain wild-card (*) characters, (but
tomwalters@0: names with wild-cards should be quoted to escape the shell).
tomwalters@0: The default name_pattern is "*", meaning all fontnames.
tomwalters@0: 
tomwalters@0: Each font is displayed in an X window in the form:
tomwalters@0: 
tomwalters@0: .nf
tomwalters@0:     [m/n]   <full fontname>
tomwalters@0: 
tomwalters@0:      <alphabet>
tomwalters@0: .fi
tomwalters@0: 
tomwalters@0: showing the m'th font out of n fonts which match the current name_pattern.
tomwalters@0: The pointer is used to click through the fonts which match each given name_pattern
tomwalters@0: as follows:
tomwalters@0: 
tomwalters@0: .nf
tomwalters@0:     left button
tomwalters@0: .fi
tomwalters@0: 
tomwalters@0: Clear the last font displayed and
tomwalters@0: display the font for the next fontname in its place.
tomwalters@0: 
tomwalters@0: .nf
tomwalters@0:     centre button
tomwalters@0: .fi
tomwalters@0: 
tomwalters@0: Display the font for the next fontname beneath the last font
tomwalters@0: displayed. This is used to store particular fonts for comparison with others.
tomwalters@0: When successive fonts have filled the window
tomwalters@0: it is cleared and the last font is re-displayed at the top of
tomwalters@0: the window.
tomwalters@0: 
tomwalters@0: .nf
tomwalters@0:     right button
