Basic S3 method for setting font

The font assignment method is used to change the font of the currently selected text.

font(obj)

## Default S3 method:
font(obj)

font(obj) <- value

font(obj) <- value

## S3 replacement method for class 'GText'
 font(obj) <- value

obj

object

value

The font specification is given in terms of a named vector or list where the names indicate a font attribute and the value a reasonable choice:

weight: c("light", "normal", "medium", "bold", "heavy")
style: c("normal", "oblique", "italic")
family: c("sans", "helvetica", "times", "monospace")
size: an integer, say c(6,8,10,11,12,14,16,18,20, 24,36,72)
color (or foreground): One of colors()
background: One of colors()
scale: c("xx-large", "x-large", "large" , "medium", "small", "x-small", "xx-small")

These are from Gtk's font specs, which though fairly standard, may not be totally supported in the other toolkits.
