(i) Within an already running xterm press ctrl key plus right mouse button
to select one of the fonts offered.

(ii) When starting an xterm client, you may want to specify a font or the
window size by command line options, e.g.:

xterm -fn 10x20 -geometry 80x32 -ls

      ^ font     ^80cols,32rows ^run a login shell

(iii) There are more possibilities ($HOME/.Xdefaults file, resource
manager property of X server etc., to much to explain here. Try
`man X' to start reading ...
