   As to your first question I only have an answer for Turbo Pascal,
but if you are interested in that angle, get /pc/tspa23##.arc.  But
if you just need a big cursor for your PC, not for your program
code, take a look at /pc/ts/tsutld18.arc, available from our site. 
   As to the second question, there is no FAQ that I know of for
this group, but Otto Makela (otto@jyu.fi) has been cosidering
writing one.  There is some related information in
/pc/ts/tsfaq17d.arc, which is also available from our site.  But it
is heavily inclined to comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d and comp.lang.pascal.
