eterm fonts

I'm trying to get larger fonts to show up in eterm. I'm editing the ~./Eterm/themes/Eterm/user.cfg and I can see fonts being set this way:

Code:

    font 0 -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--7-70-75-75-c-50-iso8859-1
    font 1 -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--10-100-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1
    font 2 -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-80-iso8859-1
    font 3 -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-120-75-75-c-90-iso8859-1

however when i attempt to enter my own entry:

Code:

 font 4 -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--24-120-100-100-c-90-iso8859-1

the font doesn't change.
I suspect there's more to it then just changing the numbers to larger values, however, i can't figure out the pattern here. Is there some easier way, as in:

font 4 20x24

because that doesn't seem to work either.

So how do I add bigger fonts to Eterm config?

TIA

what do i insert for the * values?
will anything go (numeric) or do they have to be specific numbers?

What are you talking about? Just edit that single number to either a 1,2,3 or 4.
