In my experimenting with fonts under X, I've made some progress but I've
got a question:  What is the naming convention used to associate various
fonts and sizes?

For example, if I use the following in /app-defaults/Xterm:

*VT100*font:	5x7

and if I invoke an Xterm with the following option:

-fn '-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--10-100-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1'

will the 'fixed' font from the '/misc' directory be used with a 5x7 size?
Or is something else entirely going on?

Thanks!
