font changes in ini

[Mike Wickham]

Finding the correct font name is sometimes difficult, but making the entries 
in maker.ini is easy. These two sets of instructions are embedded in 
maker.ini:

[WindowsToFrameFontAliases]
;
; This section gives the Frame font name for a Windows font.
; The format is Windows_Font=Frame_Font
; Note this is the only place in maker.ini which refers to Windows fonts.
; All other maker.ini font entries refer to the FrameFont.
;
; The format is (on a single line):
;
;  A_WINDOWS_FONT_NAME,[Italic | Regular |*],[A_WEIGHT |*]=
;  A_FRAME_FONT_NAME, [ AN_ANGLE | * ], [ A_WEIGHT | * ],
;   [ A_VARIATION | * ]
;
;  A_WINDOWS_FONT_NAME=a valid windows font face as it appears in other
;                      Windows applications.
;
;  A_FRAME_FONT_NAME=anything, but generally it is chosen to have
;                    Frame cross-platform compatibility.
;
;  A_WEIGHT=Defined above as Weights=
;
;  AN_ANGLE=Defined above as Angles=
;
;  A_VARIATION=Defined above as Variations=
;
; In the absence of an alias, the default aliasing is always applied,
; it can be written:
;     Windows Family Name, *, *=Windows Family Name, *, *, *
;
; The following are example of entries:
;
; Helvetica, Italic, *=Helvetica, Oblique, *, Regular
; HelveticaNarrow, *, *=Helvetica, * , * , Narrow
; HelveticaNarrow,Italic, *=Helvetica, Oblique, *, Narrow
;

[UnknownToKnownFontMap]
;
;  This section is for mapping unavailable fonts when reading a document.
;  The format is:    Frame Font Unavailable=Frame Font Available
;
;  The format for a Frame Font is (on one line):
;
;  A_FRAME_FONT_NAME, [AN_ANGLE | WILDCARD],[A_WEIGHT | WILDCARD],
;   [A_VARIATION | WILDCARD]
;
;  When no mapping is provided the defaults are used in the
;  Default section of [Fonts]
;
;  Examples:
;    Lumina,*,*,*=Helvetica, *, *, *
;    Helvetica,*,Light,*=Helvetica,*,Regular,*
;    Helvetica,*,*,UltraCompressed=Helvetica, *, *, Narrow
;
