Description
IMHO, the style of the default font in d.* modules (Map Display) is pretty outdated (and ugly). I suggest to change default font, Roman simplex, to something more concordant with nowadays font style such as sans-regular or so.

While I am all for such a change we need to be sure that the new default font is actually present on the user system (the built-in Hershey fonts are shipped with GRASS GIS).
In case we need a fall-back logic a built-in font when the new default font (I suppose true-type) isn't there.
