 fl [<font>]
 "font load"
 
 DESCRIPTION:
     The  font  load command tells Ce to use a different font  in  the
     current window.  The 'xlsfonts' command, located in your system's
     X11 bin directory (normally '/usr/X11/bin/xlsfonts'), lists the X
     fonts that are available on your system.

     Many  of  the  font names listed by 'xlsfonts' are  long.   Those
     names, an example of which follows, do conform to a convention:
     
     Example:
     
      -adobe-times-bold-r-normal--8-80-75-75-p-47-iso8859-1
       1.... 2.... 3... 4 5.....  6 7. 8.... 9 10 11.......
     
       1. foundry     origin of font
       2. family      major font type
       3. weight      medium or bold stroke weight
       4. slant       r=regular, i=italic, o=oblique
       5. set width   font width:  normal, condensed, narrow, double
       6. pixels      font height in pixels
       7. points      point size of font in 10ths of a point
       8. resolution  horizontal and vertical resolution in dpi
       9. spacing     m=monospace, p=proportional, c=character cell
      10. avg         average character width in 10ths of a pixel
      11. character   ISO defined character set
     
     A convenient way to view the variety of fonts is as follows:
     
     1.  Create a read-only window that contains a list of fonts as
         reported by the 'xlsfonts' utility:
            
         % xlsfonts | cv
             
     2.  Define a key that will load the font whose name is pointed at
         by the text cursor:
             
         kd <key> tl;dr;tr;xc;tdm;es 'fl ';tr;xp;tr;en ke
         #  a good choice is
         kd *z tl;dr;tr;xc;tdm;es 'fl ';tr;xp;tr;en ke
         #  This is Alt/z
             
     3.  Place the  cursor  on  a  font name in the read-only window
         and then press the key that was defined in step (2) above. 
     
     Typing  'fl'  with no arguments instructs ce to print in  the  ce
     output  window the name of the font that is currently being used.

     The  'fl'  command  also  accepts wild cards in  the  standard  X
     format.  For example: "fl *-r-normal-*-14-*" will find and load a
     14  point  font  with  regular slant and  normal  set  width.   A
     subsequent  fl  command will show the name of the  font  actually
     loaded.
