SYNOPSISfc-match [ -asvVh ] [ --all ] [ --sort ] [ --verbose ] [ -f format |
--format format ] [ --version ] [ --help ]
[ pattern [ element ... ] ]
DESCRIPTIONfc-match matches pattern (empty pattern by default) using the normal
fontconfig matching rules to find the best font available. If --sort
is given, the sorted list of best matching fonts is displayed. The
--all option works like --sort except that no pruning is done on the
list of fonts.
If any elements are specified, only those are printed. Otherwise short
file name, family, and style are printed, unless verbose output is
requested.
