about choosing a font with narrow spacing ...
In carbon emacs, you can turn on a bunch of unicode fonts that
wouldn't normally show.
do this:
; make available extra CJK-font for carbon emacs in the menu
(if (eq window-system 'mac) (require 'carbon-font))
currently i use the following font:
; about carbon emacs fonts, see /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/
Resources/site-lisp/mac/carbon-font.el
(if (featurep 'carbon-emacs-package) (fixed-width-set-default-fontset
"-*-*-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-hirakaku_w6"))
not sure how this compares to your desired narrowness but worth a
shot.
