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.
"XTerm-color" includes "XTerm". I'd modify the latter.
(there's also the possibility that neither is used - "appres XTerm"
would show whatever resource values are found, though not where).
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.
Those are all in the manpage - look for (1) "*customization: color",
(2) faceName, and (3) faceSize
