You can change the starting font by adding it to the file ~/.Xresources.
I use the line
XTerm.*.font: 9x15
to get the appearance I want (I think this is the same as the Large
font). Use the command xlsfonts to get a complete list of available
fonts.

Subject: "huge" font as default?
Hi,
I work with Cygwin/X in a laptop using 1600x1200 pixels. As a result,
the Xtern fonts appear really small, and I always change to the "huge"
setting (CTRL+right-click, "HUGE"). I tried changing the default font,
but whenever I change font size, for example, the default font comes
back. (I imagine not all fonts have all sizes...)
So, my question is just: Is there any way to open the Xterm already with
the 'huge" font, by default?
Thanks,
Gustavo Seabra.
