ARGUMENTS
     background_color
               Specifies the RGB values for the background of the source.

     cursor    Specifies the cursor.

     d         Specifies the drawable, which indicates the screen.

     display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

     foreground_color
               Specifies the RGB values for the foreground of the source.

     width
     height    Specify the width and heightof the cursor that you want the
               size information for.

     width_return
     height_return
               Return the best width and height that is closest to the

DESCRIPTION
     The XRecolorCursor function changes the color of the specified cursor,
     and if the cursor is being displayed on a screen, the change is visible
     immediately.

     XRecolorCursor can generate a BadCursor error.

     The XFreeCursor function deletes the association between the cursor
     resource ID and the specified cursor.  The cursor storage is freed when
     no other resource references it.  The specified cursor ID should not be
     referred to again.

     XFreeCursor can generate a BadCursor error.

     Some displays allow larger cursors than other displays.  The
     XQueryBestCursor function provides a way to find out what size cursors
     are actually possible on the display.  It returns the largest size that
     can be displayed.  Applications should be prepared to use smaller cursors
     on displays that cannot support large ones.
     XQueryBestCursor can generate a BadDrawable error.

DIAGNOSTICS
     BadCursor A value for a Cursor argument does not name a defined Cursor.

     BadDrawable
               A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Window
               or Pixmap.
