Hm, this works if I `setq' that variable before calling `message', but (let ((resize-mini-windows nil)) (message _SOME_KOREAN_STRING_)) still resizes the echo area. Any idea how to disable the resizing for one `message'? (A real fix = correct behaviour w/ var-width fonts would also be OK.) - Christoph
