For CLI, xlsfonts: $ xlsfonts -fn -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 -adobe-courier-bold-i-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-1 -adobe-courier-bold-i-normal--17-120-100-100-m-0-iso8859-1 -adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--0-0-75-75-m-0-iso8859-1 -adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--10-100-75-75-m-60-iso8859-1 -adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-1 -adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--14-140-75-75-m-90-iso8859-1 -adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--17-120-100-100-m-0-iso8859-1 -adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--18-180-75-75-m-110-iso8859-1 -adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--24-240-75-75-m-150-iso8859-1 -adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--8-80-75-75-m-50-iso8859-1 For GUI, xfontsel $ xfontsel -pattern *iso8859-1* > Also with most apps, I only see a limited variety of the defined fonts.

Many popular ones don't, however.
