I just migrated to a PC compatible platform from certain 68000/mouse driven
machines and am currently having problems using a microsoft compatible mouse
in my own program written in Turbo-C.

I'm using source code from SIMTEL20 (GMOUSE.ARC) for the int86(0x33...) stuff
and can read and set all mouse attributes except I can't set the mouse cursor
(graphics cursor) to look like any recognizable shape. It always looks like
binary trash...

The program runs on an 8088 XT compatible with 512K RAM and the 'small'
memory model for Turbo-C. It's a 'quick and dirty' program for my own use
only.

Would some kind soul be generous enough to send me a working Turbo-C source
for implementing a mouse cursor in graphics modes? Thanks in advance!!!
