Tk::Font - a class for finding X Fonts

use Tk::X11Font;
$font = $widget->X11Font(foundry => 'adobe',
                      family  => 'times',
                      point   => 120
                     );
$font = $widget->X11Font('*-courier-medium-r-normal-*-*');

This module can be use to interrogate the X server what fonts are
avaliable.

Set the given field in the font name to $val if given and return the current or previous value

In a list context it returns a list of all font names that match the fields given. It will return a maximum of $max names, or 128 if $max is not given.

In a scalar contex it returns the first matching name or undef

Create a duplicate of the curent font object and modify the given fields
