    <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>
