For xterm's only (not kterms, dtterms, rxvt, etc[1]): 

If you hold down the CTRL-key and press anbd hold button 3 on your mouse 
(that is, the right-mouse button unless you've swapped the buttons over) 
whilst the mouse cursor is within a window, you'll get a list of font sizes 
... from "unreadable" to "huge" :-) Holding down CTRL with button 1 or 
button 2 (button 2 = both mouse buttons on some configs) will give yet more 
xterm options.

As for anything that isn't an xterm, I can't help :)

Chris...
[1] it *might* work on other GUI terminals but it started off on xterms and 
others copied it :)
