font-manager is intended to provide a way for average users
to easily manage desktop fonts, without having to resort to command line
tools or editing configuration files by hand. While designed primarily with
the Gnome Desktop Environment in mind, it should work well with other Gtk+
desktop environments.

- While the --keep option will require at least one font family to remain
enabled it makes no attempt to ensure that it is a suitable replacement
for required system fonts.
- The --enable option with no arguments should enable all available
fonts.

font-manager is a user level application, it will not allow
installation to, or removal of fonts from, anywhere other than the default
user font directory. However, the application does allow users to disable
system fonts and also makes it easy to add font directories.
