	If I create a Text Widget, how do I specify the font?

Here's what I do (ignoring error checking for clarity :-):

	int		n;
	Arg		args[10];
	Widget		root, form, label;
	XFontStruct	*fi;

	/* assume you have a form already made (or a box or ...) */
	n = 0;
	fi = XLoadQueryFont(XtDisplay(root), "vctl-25");
	XtSetArg(args[n], XtNfont, (XtArgVal)fi); n++;
	XtCreateManagedWidget("A Label", labelWidgetClass, form, args, n);
