Installing fonts

[Dinesh Nadarajah]

Hi: I tread the world of Linux mostly. Installed a couple of FreeBSD distributions at work. I was wondering how to install fonts for GTK/.Gnome use. In newer Linux distros users can put all their TTF fonts in ~/.fonts and the system will automatically make them available. Would this be the case in FreeBSD too!. I did not find any documentation on this. Sorry if this is a repeat question. Thanks in Advance. -D
