Really Alex - RTFM!
man xterm
-leftbar
Force scrollbar to the left side of VT100 screen. This
is the
default, unless you have set the rightScrollBar resource.
-rightbar
Force scrollbar to the right side of VT100 screen.
-fn font
This option specifies the font to be used for displaying
normal
text. The corresponding resource name is font. The
resource
value default is fixed.
And which font to select?
in shell, type
/usr/bin/xlsfonts
and select one you like
