Use xfontsel to choose the font and then specify the exact same thing that it shows:

xterm -fn '-bitstream-charter-*-r-normal-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*'

xfontsel works great and works fine for the sample string above (Bitstream Charter), but xterm barfs on font strings that have spaces, for example:


"-bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-*-r-normal-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"

I've tried every combination of single quotes, double quotes and backslashes before the spaces without success. I get back an error like this:

xterm:  bad command line option "vera"

Any ideas??
