Identify XTerm font ?

Hello,

My Xterm font is a bit small, so I want increasing it permanently for all Xterm windows, I succeed to do that through :

Code: 
XTerm*font: -[color="Red"][B]fixed[/B][/color]-*-*-*-20-*

in my .Xresources file, but font family looks changed after !

How can I get font family name for Xterm windows ???

Code: 
XTerm*font: -[color="Red"][B]???[/B][/color]-*-*-*-20-*

Cheers
 
You need x11-fonts/xfontsel to see font family names.

However, I recommend not using XTerm*font. That resource is from the 80s before libXft was developed. Try this instead:

Code: 
XTerm*faceName: Monospace:size=20

For getting face names, there is fc-list(1) and fc-match(1).
 
xfontsel : Pretty app. ;)

Just another question : I am using Xfig and I want that my postscript fonts inside take smooth because they are more hard.

It is possible ? If yes, how ?

Regards
