a font selector program

NAME

gtkfontsel - a font selector program

SYNOPSIS

gtkfontsel [ -print ] [ -p text ]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the gtkfontsel command. It was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

gtkfontsel is very similar to xfontsel, but is hopefully much easier to use. After selecting a font, you can use the 'Copy Font Name' button to copy the font name to the clipboard, so you can easily paste it into another application.

It also supports the '-print' command line option which will print the selected font name to stdout when the user hits 'Exit'.

OPTIONS

-print

Makes the program print the selected font name to stdout when the user hits 'Exit'.

-p text

Set the text for the preview window.
