I prefer to use (in my .Xresources) ! Make the default font bigger XTerm*VT100*Font: 9x15 ! and make the last two sizes much bigger XTerm*VT100*Font5: 10x20 XTerm*VT100*Font6: 12x24 as you can then use the VT Fonts menu to switch sizes. I seem to remember struggling for a while to find the resource names that worked, i.e. the * / VT100 / letter case.
