NAME

       FcFontSort - Return list of matching fonts

SYNOPSIS

       #include <fontconfig.h>

       FcFontSet * FcFontSort (FcConfig *config, FcPattern *p, FcBool trim, FcCharSet **csp, FcResult *result);

DESCRIPTION

       Returns  the list of fonts sorted by closeness to p.  If trim is FcTrue, elements in the list which don't include Unicode coverage not pro-
       vided by earlier elements in the list are elided.  The union of Unicode coverage of all of the fonts is returned in  csp,  if  csp  is  not
       NULL.   This  function should be called only after FcConfigSubstitute and FcDefaultSubstitute have been called for p; otherwise the results
       will not be correct.

       The returned FcFontSet references FcPattern structures which may be shared by the return value from multiple FcFontSort calls, applications
       must  not  modify  these patterns.  Instead, they should be passed, along with p to FcFontRenderPrepare which combines them into a complete
       pattern.

       The FcFontSet returned by FcFontSort is destroyed by calling FcFontSetDestroy.  If config is NULL, the current configuration is used.

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

       -s --sort
	      Displays sorted list of best matching fonts.

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

       -f --format format
	      Format output according to the format specifier format.

       -V --version
	      Show version of the program and exit.

       -h --help
	      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.
