There are two types of font systems in Linux/X11. So the answer
depends on what application you need it for.
How can I tell which system I am using in the application? The application
uses plain old xlib calls. (Indeed, I don't know any other way to write
reliable low-level X code, but I can't say I've looked very hard.)
You can tell the name of the program for one. Secondly, you can check
if it links to /usr/lib/libXft.so.2 or /usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1
Anyway, assuming your application uses X11 core fonts, xlsfonts will
list them all. The Xorg server has bult-in support for TrueType, Type1
and bitmap fonts, and a default search path for them (check for
"FontPath set to" in the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file). Fonts installed by
packages are usually automatically available.
