Rob your answer is way over my head. 
If I have any hotkeys in X I don't know about them 
and I certainly don't know how to set one.

Not to fear though your answer was very helpful.
'man uxterm' lead to /etc/X11/app-defaults/UXTerm
which lead to /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm
which contains:
    *fontMenu*font5*Label:  Large
    *VT100*font5:           9x15
so when I put "XTerm*font:             9x15" in .Xresources
I get the size xterm windows I want when X starts. :)

Thanks a lot,
Mike
