DESCRIPTION

defcursor defines a cursor glyph.  The arguments are a name (n) and a 16 x 16 bitmap.  The cursor origin is at the cursor’s lower left corner by default; curorigin can reset it.  The cursor origin is the position influenced by valuators attached to the cursor, and is also the position pick uses for the picking region.  The name is used in subsequent cursor routines.  By default, an arrow is defined as cursor 0 and cannot be redefined.  To replace a cursor, the new cursor must have the same index as the previous cursor.
