[Image-SIG] autodetecting fonts

[Stani]

Unfortunately this not possible at the moment as far as I know. For
Phatch I developed this module:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~stani/phatch/dev/annotate/head%
3A/phatch/core/lib//fonts.py

It is far from ideal, but it works.

You can see it in action when you run phatch
(http://photobatch.stani.be) and add a text action.
