If anyone reads the release notes for XFree86 4.0.3 you'll see that
in fact xterm does support anti-aliased fonts out of the box. Try
xterm -fa fixed -fs 10
You can substitute charter, lucida, etc. (check your /etc/X11/XftConfig
file for valid entires) for the -fa option and -fs is the point size. You'll
know right away if anti-aliasing is working.
