I have in my ~/.Xdefaults file...

XTerm*Tek*background:   MintCream
XTerm*jumpScroll:       on
XTerm*pointerShape:     arrow
XTerm*cursorColorBackground:    blue
XTerm*font:     *-fixed-*-*-*-20-*
XTerm*boldFont: *-fixed-*-*-*-20-*
XTerm*scrollKey:        on
XTerm*foreground:       black
XTerm*pointerColor:     navyblue
XTerm*pointerColorBackground:   White
XTerm*background:       PaleTurquoise
XTerm*scrollBar:        on
XTerm*borderColor:      RoyalBlue
XTerm*highlight:        RoyalBlue
XTerm*saveLines:        500
XTerm*loginShell:       on
XTerm*cursorColor:      black
XTerm*vt100*geometry:   80x36

After added the entries you want, you may have to do an xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults

Hi X11 users,

I found the default font size (14) for xterm too small so I would like to set it to be "Large" (in VT fonts menu) as default.

I have been looking at the file

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/XTerm

but couldn't find out how to change the default font size.

Does anybody know how to do it?

It would also be great if I could change some default settings in the Main Options Menu (like Meta sends Escape, Delete is DEL, etc..).

Thanks,
Liang
