Donna's reply on the semantics of setting the cursor is correct.  It should
be noted, however, that the widget must support the XtNcursor resource (or 
something like it) in order for the XtSetValues call to work.  You should
check the documentation on the widget set that you are using to see if the
widget that you are interested in has this particular resource.

If the widget does not have a cursor resource you can always use XDefineCursor(),
as Donna mentioned, but be sure that your widget is realized or you will
get an X protocol error.
