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. Note that the pixel members of the XColor
structures are ignored, only the RGB values are used.
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.
