I don't know what that means. You want to tweak how it tells where a
word ends when you click to select word/line/para ? So e.g. whether
"frobozz.quux" is one word or two?

Is this what you want?
-sb This option indicates that some number of lines that are
scrolled off the top of the window should be saved and
that a scrollbar should be displayed so that those lines
can be viewed. This option may be turned on and off from
the “VT Options” menu.
xterm's scrollbar is the traditional style -- mouse1 to go up, mouse3 to
go down, mouse2 (middle) to go to the point clicked. If you can deal
with widget behaviour that predates NOTEPAD.EXE, I don't see a problem.

urxvt (rxvt-unicode) and xterm are consistently popular. I can
definitely recommend the former.
For urxvt, I used
! Bind C-0, C-+ and C-= to activate medium, big and small font size
respectively.
URxvt.font: xft:DejaVu Sans Mono-7
URxvt.keysym.C-minus: command:\033]710;xft:DejaVu Sans Mono-7\007
URxvt.keysym.C-0: command:\033]710;xft:DejaVu Sans Mono\007
URxvt.keysym.C-equal: command:\033]710;xft:DejaVu Sans Mono-19\007
That's not arbitrary sizes, but "big, normal, tiny" was good enough for
my needs. (Nowadays, I use setupcon for the same effect.)
xterm has it on shift + KP_Plus / KP_minus by default, IIRC, which can
be painful on a laptop keyboard. Also if you specify a size,
e.g. "xterm -fa Monospace-8" instead of "xterm -fa Monospace", it breaks
the resizing.
