The widget builder, wided, allows you to browse through a whole list
of Xfonts for each text item you define. This way you can play around
with different fonts to get the look you want.
If you then create the .pro file you can see that the format for the
widget command looks like this:
LABEL105 = WIDGET_LABEL( Main_base, $
FONT='-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal--20-140-100-100-p-105-i so8859-1', $
UVALUE='LABEL105', $
VALUE='Text label')
