d.font allows the user to select use of a specific text font for display of text on the graphics monitor. If the user does not specify a font when using other GRASS programs that display text, the font type romans is used by default.
The user can run this program either non-interactively or interactively. If the user specifies a font type name on the command line the program will run non-interactively. Alternately, the user can simply type d.font on the command line; in this case, the program will prompt the user for a display text font type.
Parameter:
The font type romans is the fastest font type to display to the graphics monitor.
