fc-match

FC-MATCH(1)															       FC-MATCH(1)

NAME

       fc-match - match available fonts

SYNOPSIS

       fc-match [ -asvVh ]  [ --all ]  [ --sort ]  [ --verbose ]  [  [ -f format ]  [ --format format ]  ]  [ --version ]  [ --help ]

	[ pattern  [ element... ]   ]

DESCRIPTION

       fc-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.

OPTIONS

       This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is  included
       below.

       -a     Displays sorted list of best matching fonts, but do not do any pruning on the list.

       -s     Displays sorted list of best matching fonts.

       -v     Print verbose output of the whole font pattern for each match, or elements if any is provided.

       -f     Format output according to the format specifier format.

       -V     Show version of the program and exit.

       -h     Show summary of options.

       pattern
	      Displays fonts matching pattern (uses empty pattern by default).

       element
	      If set, the element property is displayed for matching fonts.
