- omitted. This is equivalent to using `specifier-instance' and
- applying `font-instance-name' to the result.

- This function returns the truename of the FONT in the specified
- DOMAIN, if any. FONT should be a font specifier object and DOMAIN
- is normally a window and defaults to the selected window if
- omitted. This is equivalent to using `specifier-instance' and
- applying `font-instance-truename' to the result.

- This function returns the properties of the FONT in the specified
- DOMAIN, if any. FONT should be a font specifier object and DOMAIN
- is normally a window and defaults to the selected window if
