[O] Does a font exist?

[Craig Emery <ranec yahoo com>]

Dear All,

The gdk_font_... routines don't seem to include
anything to list all the fonts that are installed so
unless I try and actually load a font, with
gdk_font_load, (which sometimes crashes my program) I
can't tell whether or not a font is available. Help?

I would also like to create a pop-up with the names of
all the installed fonts, so being able to get a list
of all the installed fonts would be **really**
usefull.

Also; themes: I've not really looked, so this could be
a FAQ but how do I tell what the default font is? I
need its full XLFD name (or something close) so I can
use it but in a different size. Using (GdkFont *) NULL
won't do. <grin>

TIA

Craig
