FontFamily(const char *name)

1) Create and set internal name to the one passed to the constructor

2) Create the styles list

~FontFamily(void)

1) delete the internal name

2) empty and delete the internal style list

void AddStyle(const char *path, FT_Face face)

Adds the style to the family.

FontStyle *GetStyle(const char *style)

const char *GetStyle(int32 index)

Returns the name of the style at index

1) Get the FontStyle item at index obtained via the style list's ItemAt call

int32 CountStyles(void)

Returns the number of items in the style list and, thus, the number of styles in the family
