<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
2008-08-13 06:42:12 +02:00
<para><command>&dhpackage;</command> matches
<replaceable>pattern</replaceable> (empty
pattern by default) using the normal fontconfig matching rules to find
2008-08-13 06:42:12 +02:00
the best font available. If <option>--sort</option> is given, the sorted list of best
matching fonts is displayed.
The <option>--all</option> option works like
2008-08-13 06:42:12 +02:00
<option>--sort</option> except that no pruning is done on the list of fonts.</para>
2009-07-24 20:59:07 +02:00
<para>If any elements are specified, only those are printed.
Otherwise short file name, family, and style are printed, unless verbose
output is requested.</para>
