The arrow cursor is located somewhere in ROM, and placed into an application's QD globals when it calls InitGraf. You can either change the QD globals, or patch SetCursor to compare the given cursor image with your local copy of an Arrow. You'll have to do the latter if you want to globally replace a normal cursor with a colored one, as I did with the ColorCursor INIT. -- Matthias Urlichs -- urlichs@smurf.sub.org -- urlichs@smurf.ira.uka.de /(o\ Humboldtstrasse 7 - 7500 Karlsruhe 1 - FRG -- +49-721-621127(0700-2330) \o)/
