Create a file called .Xresources in your $HOME directory.  Put the fonts
and all the other resources you want for XTerm's in there, as in:

    XTerm*font: -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-*-*-120-*-*-m-*-*-*
    XTerm*termName: xterm-color
    XTerm*backspacekey: ^H

and make sure that your ~/.xinitrc script uses xrdb to merge your
.Xresources when X11 is started:

    % grep xrdb .xinitrc
	[snip]
    sysresources=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/.Xresources
    xrdb -merge $sysresources
    userresources=$HOME/.Xresources
    xrdb -merge $userresources
	[snip]

That should be enough :)
