The Tile widgets uniformly use TIP#145(-inspired) named fonts.
First check if one of the following predefined symbolic font
names are appropriate for your purposes. If so, just use that:
# TkDefaultFont -- default for GUI items not otherwise specified
# TkTextFont -- font for user text (entry, listbox, others).
# TkHeadingFont -- headings (column headings, etc)
# TkCaptionFont -- dialog captions (primary text in alert dialogs, etc.)
# TkTooltipFont -- font to use for tooltip windows
If not, use [font configure TkDefaultFont] (or TkTextFont, or
whichever one you want to use as a base font) to extract the
default -family, -size, and -weight; modify to suit; and create
a new font with those attributes.
(See also library/fonts.tcl for more details).
