Nice!  The problem with xfontsel is that the returned string usually
contains wildcards.  If I just press `quit', xfontsel returns
-*-*-*-...*--*- which isn't very helpful.  I think we need an
interface which always asks for some fields to really identify a font,
not relying on the order the fonts are found by the system.  With
other words, the routine for selecting a font should find exactly one
font.
