page: `docbook-to-man manpage.sgml > manpage.1'. You may view
the manual page with: `docbook-to-man manpage.sgml | nroff -man |

docbook-to-man in your Build-Depends control field.

<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para><command>&dhpackage;</command> matches
<replaceable>pattern</replaceable> (empty
pattern by default) using the normal fontconfig matching rules to find
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
<option>--sort</option> except that no pruning is done on the list of fonts.</para>
<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>
