Gordon,

Below is my .Xresources file:

  XTerm*scrollBar:true
  XTerm*saveLines:200

The second line saves a 200 line history. You should also look at or
copy to your home .xinitrc the file:

  /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc  <- note no dot

It has the correct syntax for using xrdb. This should get you going.
Have fun!

John
