83
84    <para><command>&dhpackage;</command> matches
85    <replaceable>pattern</replaceable> (empty
86pattern by default) using the normal fontconfig matching rules to find
87the best font available.  If <option>--sort</option> is given, the sorted list of best
88matching fonts is displayed.
89The <option>--all</option> option works like
90<option>--sort</option> except that no pruning is done on the list of fonts.</para>
91<para>If any elements are specified, only those are printed.
92Otherwise short file name, family, and style are printed, unless verbose
93output is requested.</para>
