I got current xterm and ucs-fonts-asian.tar.gz.
I shocked, xterm displays all characters with full width
when ucs-fonts-asian is used.

It is NEVER useful. It is too bad.
Does any one use xterm with 960(12*80) or 1440(18*80) pixels ?
# The window of my note-PC has only 800 pixels.
Does any developer of xterm know that many japanese hate full width
alphabet characters ?
And, it is very bad for w3m-i18n becase all rendering is collapsed.
I (and most CJK people) don't wish this implementation of Unicode.

Please seriously think Asian, please, please...
