Parameters
- nm

is not defined
Returns
the Font value of the property.
Description
Gets the specified font from the system properties list.
The first argument is treated as the name of a system property to
be obtained as if by the method System.getProperty.
The string value of this property is then interpreted as a font.
The property value should be one of the following forms:
- fontname-style-pointsize
- fontname-pointsize
- fontname-style
- fontname
where style is one of the three strings
"BOLD", "BOLDITALIC", or
"ITALIC", and point size is a decimal
representation of the point size.
The default style is PLAIN. The default point size
is 12.
If the specified property is not found, the font
argument is returned instead.
