The X kit used to contain a file called 3BUTTONS which described the need
to use Option-left-arrow and Option-right-arrow for buttons 2 (middle) and
3 (right).  If you get a 3-button mouse, make sure you can program it to
generate the key sequences Option-down, left-arrow-down, left-arrow-up,
Option-up.

Several ways:
1)  xterm -f <font-name>
2)  put a line in your .xresources file containing
           xterm*Font:<font-name>
    and include the following line in your .xsession startup file
           xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
3)  (my favorite, 'cuz your fingers have so much fun)
    place your cursor in the text portion of the xterm window, and press
    Control-Option-right-arrow (yep - that's Control-button3) and select
    the desired font from the pop-up menu
