Is there any way to retrieve the "full" font file name, such as -HIDECW-Screen-Medium-R-Normal--24-240-75-75-M-120-ISO8859-1 out of the XFontStruct of a font ?7 I have tried XGetFontProperty, passing atoms XA_*_NAME, but it returns me only the "partial" font name, say, XA_FULL_NAME Screen-ISO8859-1 Regards, Angie

The full font name is returned by XListFonts and you don't have to play
with the properties, although the properties have the full name
See note 42/44 in DW_EXAMPLES
By the way, I'm in Hong Kong so you can meet with me in person and
discuss anything you want regarding DECwindows.

Thank you for your reply !
In fact, I know about the List Font Utility, however, for some reason,
I have to PLAY with the font properties.
>although the properties have the full name
Would appreciate if you would guide through the way.
