I've written a program in Laser C which invokes an editor via Pexec() and after the user exits does some other stuff before ending. The blinking block cursor stays on throughout the program's run and then follows all the way onto the desktop. It sits there flashing on a window or the background until the next program is run. It's apparently harmless, but annoying. Is there a command that gets rid of this troublesome object? John Purbrick jpexg@ai.mit.edu
