[newbie] Font Selection in X and Console

[Adam Stark]

Hi, I was wondering how to change/preview/install fonts for the console
and the X windows system.  Is there a nice GUI program for this?  I ask
because currently some fonts don't display properly in X programs or the
console, and I don't like to type. :)  Also, I would like to make this a
permanent change, so is there some configuration file I could edit to
make this so?
