Hi Nicolas,

I can't reproduce your problem; the following example works for me:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\begin{document}
\setmonofont{Monaco}
\ttfamily abcdefg
\setmonofont[LetterSpace=100]{Monaco}
\ttfamily abcdefg
\end{document}

Perhaps the amount of letterspacing you selected was too small to 
easily notice? Or (a long shot) you're using the listings package which 
uses its own letterspacing algorithm?

Hope this helps,
Will
