Invoke xfontsel with some improper parameters

$xfontsel --aa
usage: xfontsel [-options ...] -fn font

where options include:
-display display X server to contact
-geometry geometry size and location of window
-pattern fontspec font name pattern to match against
-print print selected font name on exit
-sample string sample text to use for 1-byte fonts
-sample16 string sample text to use for 2-byte fonts
-sampleUCS string sample text to use for ISO10646 fonts
-scaled do use scaled instances of fonts

What is this -fn option ?

Moreover I have also tried this

$xfontsel -fn '-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-400-*-*-*-*-jisx0208.1983-*'

But I could not get the proper font,where as

xfontsel -pattern '-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-400-*-*-*-*-jisx0208.1983-*'

gives the correct font.
