Those are all in the manpage - look for (1) "*customization: color",
(2) faceName, and (3) faceSize

I think that's "cutomization: -color" (note the
dash), but yes :-) ... Eliot Moss

The "XTerm" is used, but "XTerm-color" is not. Copying the color stuff
into the "XTerm" file works, but I can't figure out how to set default
font to TrueType, and default font size.

Anyone?

Where do I change the default settings (globally) for the XTerm so I
don't have to set it every time from the "VT Options" and "VT Fonts"
menus?
I tried to change stuff in /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color, but didn't
affect anything.

I'm running the latest install on a Win7 E desktop 

Cheers,
Kare
