Lower idle RPMs save gas?

I think my CRV is doing about 800 RPMs at idle after warm up. (5 speed standard shift).

I was wondering if I could somehow adjust it a bit lower to save a little
gas while waiting at stop signs etc.?.

Or, will the car start stalling out if it runs too slow?

Thanks,
Rich
