Summary: tkFont.__eq__ gives type error

Initial Comment:
The current definition is:

    def __eq__(self, other):
        return self.name == other.name and isinstance(other, Font)

This can get an AttributeError if other isn't a Font. The code should be:

    def __eq__(self, other):
        return isinstance(other, Font) and self.name == other.name
