[java-gnome-hackers] Pango's Font object

[Andrew C. <an...@op...>]

I've done preliminary coverage of Pango's Font object. This has a
describe() method which allows you to find out information about what
font was actually loaded. You get a Font from Context's loadFont().
Thanks to Behdad for his guidance on this one.

I did a test, ValidatePangoFont, but it's not good enough. I'm not sure
how to articulate a test case for this that doesn't depend on things
like the user's desktop font selections and what fonts are installed on
the system.

Maybe someone could have a try & a think about this.
