Hi again, I now copy the halfwidth part of the FixedMisc font as FixedMiscHW. When I select that font in Kate, it works… funnily enough, fullwidth glyphs are also drawn, I have no idea from what fonts though (there are several; some fit into the height, some extend the lines). This all smells quite suboptimal to me and very “automagically”.
