First off, if you use rxvt, it's not a DOS shell.

Secondly, X uses a different font selection scheme from W11 (the X
interface wrapper around the native Windows calls that rxvt uses).  W11
uses Windows font names.  For a list of available X fonts, run xlsfonts
(or use xfontsel to select fonts visually).

I don't know of an easy way to dispatch to a font name based on whether
you're running X or native.  You could try playing with window names and
using this as a selector in your .Xdefaults...
