+Font
+----
+Font value. A font can be described either in terms of its elementary
+properties, or it can be derived from one of system fonts. The font node
+may contain following subnodes (the table lists subnode name on the left and
+variable type as per the definitions above on the right side):
+
+size            UnsignedInteger
+style           normal | italic | slant
+weight          normal | bold | light
+family          roman | script | decorative | swiss | modern | teletype

+relativesize    Float, font size relative to choosen system font's size;

+All of them are optional, if they are missing, wxFont default is used.

+Colour
+------
+A colour value is either explicit RGB value in the standard #rrggbb format
+where rr, gg and bb are hexadecimal case-insensitive values in the 00..FF
+range, or a symbolic name. Symbolic names are wxSYS_COLOUR_* constants defined
+by wxWidgets, written as strings.

+Example:
+
+    <bg>wxSYS_COLOUR_SCROLLBAR</bg>
+    <fg>#FF0000</fg>
