I have seen of late quite a few programs (Norton Utilities, for example) which
(seem to?) use a graphic mouse cursor on a text screen.
Does anybody have any information as to how this is accomplished?

PS Please, don't send me book references! I don't have access to most books,
   and my time is short. I would be content with highly technical, short
   answers - I _do_ have all PD reference files, inculding the INTERlist,
   VGADOC, HelpPC, etc.

PPS No metoo postings! Anybody interested may mail me - I will send all I get,
