I build a new package from your sources enabling the full-width fonts
and changing the XLFD according to your suggestion:

(It also seemed to be necessary to use twice the
average width for the full-width fonts, otherwise the XLFD of the
full-with font and the half-width font would be identical).
RPMs are here:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/7.3-noarch/efont-unicode-0.4.0-0.noarch.rpm

Then I added the following lines to my ~/.Xresources
UXTerm*font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-18-120-100-100-c-90-iso10646-1
UXTerm*wideFont: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-18-120-100-100-c-180-iso10646-1

started xterm like
~$ LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 xterm -class UXTerm
and found that your fonts work fine now with xterm.
Thank you very much Kazuhiko. Great work!
But surprisingly the 13 pixel fonts from Markus Kuhn didn't seem to
work (CJK glyphs from Markus Kuhn's example file
18x18ja.repertoire-utf8 didn't display correctly) when set via
~/.Xresources, although they work fine when specified on the command
line:
~$ LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 xterm \
-fn -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-13-120-75-75-c-70-iso10646-1 \
-fw -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-13-120-75-75-c-120-iso10646-1
That's weird. Why does it behave differently when specified via the
~/.Xresources. And why isn't the average width of hte 'wide' font
twice the average width of the 'normal' font in case of the 13 pixel
font?
