-ouse OpenFont/QueryFont instead of ListFont
-w widthThis option specifies the width in characters that should be used in figuring out how many columns to print. The default is 79.
-n columnsThis option specifies the number of columns to use in displaying the output. By default, it will attempt to fit as many columns of font names into the number of character specified by -w width.

Doing ``xlsfonts -l'' can tie up your server for a very long time. This is really a bug with single-threaded non-preemptable servers, not with this program
