I would like to use something like a "half-space" or small space in
All the suggestions you have received are good, but ultimately you might
want to look at the spaces that Unicode provides, for example 202F. Not
sure sure which Unicode space character best suits your needs, but once
you have determined that, you can map it to one of the commands suggested
by others, or even define it to the exact width you want. For example, I
use imacron (U+012B) so much that it clashes with other characters. So I
map it to an alternate version that has a thinner macron:
\defineactivecharacter ī {\fontchar{imacron.alt}}
So what you want is a unicode space character that you can enter in your
editor, then define it in ConTeXt to exactly what you want.
fyi: the list that Wolfgang shows with verbose space names ... these are
in fact unicode characters.
