So, I take it for granted that it doesn't use it yet.

Yes, but I was wondering (or hoping) if there was a mechanism in Emacs to sort of zoom in/out the characters so that they'd take the same space regardless of their (buggy?) definition (buggy when in a non-proportional font)... PS- This problem may occur, maybe, because of automatic font replacement for characters not found in my default font (Consolas)? Best regards, Seb
