说明

xfontsel provides an interactive GUI for browsing and selecting X11 core fonts using XLFD (X Logical Font Description) names. It displays dropdown menus for each component of the 14-part XLFD font name. Clicking on a field name shows available options filtered by previous selections. The asterisk (*) acts as a wildcard. A preview of the selected font is displayed, and the full XLFD name can be copied to the clipboard. The selected font name becomes the PRIMARY text selection and PRIMARY_FONT selection, allowing paste into terminal emulators and other applications.
