Arch Fonts [SOLVED]

I've got 0.7.2 installed.  I've -Syu'd with pacman.  I'm still working at the command line.  And loving it.

I wanted to amend CONSOLEFONT= in my /etc/rc.conf but I don't know which font to choose.  Is there any way I can preview the fonts in /usr/share/kbd/keymaps without having to laboriously amend+reboot?

Hi Shagbag,
you can use setfont command:

setfont <fontname>

(only the font name without extension)

 man setfont 

for more informations
