If you wish to print (or see) a preview of your installed fonts under linux. I found this command myself:
Here is the All-in-One command, copy and paste all this in a terminal (Applications > Accessories > Terminal):
1
2
| (echo '<html><body>' && (fc-list | sed 's/\(.*\):.*/<font face="\1">\1<\/font><br>/') && echo '</body></html>') > fonts.html
firefox fonts.html |
Then Hit Enter.
This should open firefox and open fonts.html, by itself.
Otherwise, go to your user's directory and open fonts.html yourself.

Here's a quick and easy way to have Thunderbird in the tray, use FireTray!
FireTray is for Firefox but it works perfectly with Thunderbird 2.
When you are on the module page, just drag and drop the download button into Thunderbird's addon window. And restart it.
Enjoy.
