Yes, I do -- I wrote the beast...
At INIT time, load a color cursor and a b/w cursor into memory.
Now every time anyone calls SetCursor, compare the cursor you want to
set to with the b/w cursor stored earlier. If same, call SetCCursor
instead.

This only works because InitCursor just calls SetCursor(arrow), Arrow
is a QD global installed by InitGraf, and the original Arrow has been
stolen from there with MacsBug and ResEdit...

Install other cursors in a copy of this INIT and you could replace
other cursors too. Anyone have a color cursor editor ?
