/**
 * @short A font selection dialog.
 *
 * The KFontDialog provides a dialog for interactive font selection.
 * It is basically a thin wrapper around the KFontChooser widget,
 * which can also be used standalone. In most cases, the simplest
 * use of this class is the static method KFontDialog::getFont(),
 * which pops up the dialog, allows the user to select a font, and
 * returns when the dialog is closed.
 *
 * Example:
 *
 * \code
 *      QFont myFont;
 *      int result = KFontDialog::getFont( myFont );
 *      if ( result == KFontDialog::Accepted )
 *            ...
 * \endcode
