Welcome vivekn,

Firstly, please wrap all code, files, input & output/errors in CODE tags. It makes them far easier to read and preserves spacing for indenting or fixed width data.

I have a few to questions pose in response:-
  • Is this homework/assignment? There are specific forums for these.
  • What have you tried so far?
  • What output/errors do you get?
  • What OS and version are you using?
  • What are your preferred tools? (C, shell, perl, awk, etc.)
  • What logical process have you considered? (to help steer us to follow what you are trying to achieve)
Most importantly, What have you tried so far?

There are probably many ways to achieve most tasks, so giving us an idea of your style and thoughts will help us guide you to an answer most suitable to you so you can adjust it to suit your needs in future.


We're all here to learn and getting the relevant information will help us all.



Kind regards,
Robin

       -f     Format output according to the format specifier format.

       -q     Suppress all normal output. returns 1 as the error code if no fonts matched.

       -V     Show version of the program and exit.

       pattern
	      If this argument is set, only fonts matching pattern are displayed.

EXAMPLES

       fc-list
