Adjusting the cable at the tranny end is exactly what you need in order to fix this condition. Put a piece of lumber behind the clutch pedal so it is held all the way out. Get under the car and remove the cable from the fitting there. Use a pry bar to pry the horseshoe spring back in the opposite direction from the one in which it travels when you depress the clutch pedal. The horseshoe spring will snap in that direction, toward (perhaps against) the exhaust. THEN adjust the lock bolt to achieve the 1.2mm gap, pu the cable back onto the fitting and tighten until the gap closes to 1mm.
If you do this properly the horseshoe spring will be holding the cable taut, and holding the pedal out. No further need to use your toe.
