Dzen2 and conky-cli issue

Question

Hello I'm trying to set up dzen2 with conky-cli, here's my configs etc:
/bin/dzconky:
FG='#aaaaaa'
BG='#1a1a1a'
FONT='-*-terminus-*-r-normal-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*'
conky | dzen2 -e -h '16' -w '600' -ta r -fg $FG -bg $BG -fn $FONT
.conkyrc:
background no
out_to_console yes
update_interval 1.0
total_run_times 0
use_spacer no
TEXT
${time "%A %-d. %B %H:%M}
And when i try to run dzconky, this appears:
[roberth@Magda ~]$ dzconky
usage: dzen2 [-v] [-p [seconds]] [-m [v|h]] [-ta <l|c|r>] [-sa <l|c|r>]
[-x <pixel>] [-y <pixel>] [-w <pixel>] [-tw <pixel>] [-u]
[-e <string>] [-l <lines>] [-fn <font>] [-bg <color>] [-fg <color>]
[roberth@Magda ~]$
Where is the error, and by the way, how do I get the same as xft-sans-10 with dzen2?

I believe you must add the path to terminus in your xorg.conf... at least that's what I had to do:
Section "Files"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/local" # added for Terminus
EndSection
Thank you that helped.
