Name
pfontdesc:BetterMatch -- match font descriptions
Synopsis
ok = pfontdesc:BetterMatch(old_match, new_match)
Function
Determines if the style attributes of new_match are a closer match for the font description than those of old_match are, or if old_match is Nil, determines if new_match is a match at all.

Approximate matching is done for weight and style; other style attributes must match exactly. Style attributes are all attributes other than family and size-related attributes. Approximate matching for style considers #PANGO_STYLE_OBLIQUE and #PANGO_STYLE_ITALIC as matches, but not as good a match as when the styles are equal.

Note that old_match must match the font description.

Inputs
old_match
a Pango font description object or Nil
new_match
a Pango font description object
Results
ok
True if new_match is a better match
