 Apparently, some aspects of xclock(1) have changed, while its 
 documentation (it seems) has not.
 
 The correct syntax now seems to be e.g.:
     fixed-9:width=semicondensed:weight=bold
 used with either the XClock*Face widget (not Font) in ~/.Xdefaults 
 or ~/.Xresources, or with the '-fa' flag to xclock(1).
 
 The following url (thank you, Google) is where I found out:
