AKA -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-100-100-100-c-60-iso8859-1.

But even if the OP had some -misc-fixed-** xlfd configured, doesn't mean
it was the 13 px face.  My intiial reply could have been interpreted to
imply that all of the -misc-fixed- family were included.

It seemed reasonable to be more precise.

As it turns out, at least with the current version of libXfont,

   :; xset fp= built-ins ; xlsfonts

returns:

   -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--0-0-75-75-c-0-iso8859-1
   -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-100-100-100-c-60-iso8859-1
   -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1
   6x13
