How to make XTerm smaller-vt-font() and larger-vt-font() use smoother steps?

I'm using smaller-vt-font() and larger-vt-font() to quickly change the font size. However, the steps in which the font size changes are too big and I want them to be smoother so the resulting font sizes are closer to the default font size.



After doing some research, I think I have to redefine the "Unreadable", "Tiny", "Small", "Medium", "Large" and "Huge" font sizes. There is this particular question which describes the issue. However, terminus-12, terminus-14 and so on won't work, because xlsfonts doesn't list those bitmap font aliases for me:



$ xlsfonts
-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--0-0-75-75-c-0-iso8859-1
-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-100-100-100-c-60-iso8859-1
-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1
6x13
cursor
fixed


Currently, my .Xresources looks like this:



XTerm*faceName: DejaVu Sans Mono
XTerm*faceSize: 12
XTerm.vt100.translations: #override n
Ctrl <Key> minus: smaller-vt-font() n
Ctrl <Key> plus: larger-vt-font()


What do I need to add, to set the sizes of "Unreadable", "Tiny", "Small", "Medium", "Large" and "Huge" to 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 for example?

          That's done with the related faceSize1, etc., resources mentioned in the xterm manual page.
