And all the available programs seem to be big too.
Here's the best way I've seen, as produced by James Howard: it
produces a 9 byte (!) program called cursor.com.

	C:\>debug
	-n cursor.com
	-a 100
	1B3F:0100 mov cx, 0007 ; select all lines of cursor block
	1B3F:0103 mov ah, 1    ; set cursor-size service
	1B3F:0105 int 10       ; call bios-video service
	1B3F:0107 int 20       ; exit
	1B3F:0109
	-rcx
	CX 0000
	:9
	-w
	Writing 0009 bytes
	-q
