Alternatively, ctrl-right-click once xterm is running to choose from a
menu of font sizes.

The -fn option is documented in the xterm man page, but the keystroke
for the menu appears to be missing from the MENUS section.

If you really mean "xterm", then this question is off-topic for this list,
and belongs on the cygwin-xfree list.  I'm redirecting my reply there and
setting the Reply-To: accordingly.

You need to use the -fn option to pass the name/size combination for the
font you want.
