If there's a way, I don't know what it is. And more to the point, it
seems that Fredrik Lundh doesn't know one either since such a thing
isn't mentioned in his excellent Introduction to Tkinter, at

http://www.pythonware.com/library/tkinter/introduction/index.htm

It seems that it's necessary to set widgets' fonts individually.
