DESCRIPTION
       The XRecolorCursor function changes the color of the spec-
       ified cursor, and if the cursor is being displayed on a
       screen, the change is visible immediately.  Note that the
       pixel members of the XColor structures are ignored, only
       the RGB values are used.

XRecolorCursor(3X11)      XLIB FUNCTIONS     XRecolorCursor(3X11)


       XRecolorCursor can generate a BadCursor error.

       The XFreeCursor function deletes the association between
       the cursor resource ID and the specified cursor.  The cur-
       sor 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.  Appli-
       cations should be prepared to use smaller cursors on dis-
       plays 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.
