If you can't get the menu bar .. you could alway do a Ctrl+mouse button (right, left, middle) to bring up xterm menus. > I'm able to select bigger fonts using xfontsel but when putting them > in .Xresources or .Xdefaults, and doing and xrdb -load, and then > starting xterm or mrxvt with that font, xterm or mrxvt give an error > about not finding that font and start with the normal small fixed font > only.
