NAME

       avg_showfont - font enumeration and preview tool

SYNOPSIS

       avg_showfont [fontname] [text]

DESCRIPTION

       List available font faces and generate preview of their variants.

       If  invoked  without arguments, avg_showfont generates a list of font family names and prints them on the
       console.  Fontconfig is used for font discovery. Fonts are searched for in the system font  path  and  in
       $PWD/fonts.

       If  fontname  is  specified,  the  chosen font is displayed in a window, with one line for each available
       variant.

       If supplied, the optional text argument is used instead of the variant name in the sample text.
