[SOLVED] My xterm(390) configs don't work

I have xterm(390) (kernel release is 6.8.9-arch1-2). I set up its configs in ~/.Xresources:

XTerm.VT100.faceSize: 20
XTerm.termName: xterm-256color
XTerm*background: #000000
XTerm*foreground: #ffffff
XTerm.VT100.metaSendsEscape: true

Further, I put

xrdb ~/.Xresources

in .xinitrc. But after rebooting, the settings did not work.

How can I fix it?

Re: [SOLVED] My xterm(390) configs don't work

The problem is solved. It was in the config of i3. There is, somewhere on the 52 line, the keybinding for terminal start which was set up on i3-sesibale-terminal (not xterm!). You can change it on your terminal.
In other words, the issue wasn't on configs of xterm or .xinitrc (it works) and on i3 configs.
