RE: doc of x-family-fonts

    When I try (x-list-fonts "*") I get a list of fonts, but it is
    completely different from the list I get via Shift mouse-1. Why is
    that? Just what is each list used for in Emacs?

I should add that I can use fonts like
"-*-fixed-*-*-*-*-5-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1", but I don't see "fixed" in either
list - neither (x-list-fonts "*") nor Shift mouse-1 on Windows shows a
"fixed" font on my machine.

This is confusing to me. What is the way to get a list of all supported
fonts?

(BTW - Shift mouse-1 on my machine shows a "Fixedsys" font, but it looks
like that is different from the "fixed" font in Emacs - I just happen to
have a font named "Fixedsys" installed in my Windows Fonts folder.)
