Hello PC users...

I'm writing a DOS application which works in graphics mode. I use the mouse.

I would like to know if it is possible to change how the mouse pointer looks.
I want the arrow to be a hand or a magnifying glass. Is it possible to
display my self-designed cursor ???

If yes, how can I do or where can I get the information ?

( I use the microsoft mouse.sys driver )

Thanks for any help !

Sincerely,

Steve Jordi
