Question Adjusting my Civic idle

I own a 1998 Honda Civic 5 speed stick. It's a great car, but I wish
I could increase the idle. Don't get me wrong, the present idle speed is
around 750 rpm, which is considered optimum, but I personally find
that I can engage the clutch more smoothly if the car idles around
900 rpm. Is there a way to bypass the computer? Or am I forever
stuck at 750? I do delivery work and, especially when backing up,
it would be nice to have the increased idle.
