I like the program CURSES.EXE.  It lets you define your cursor to
be one of several different characters.  The best ones are the
Calvin & Hobbes cursors.  However, the program also allows for cycling.
Unfortunately, the author doesn't turn cycling off when only one
character is selected.  The cursor will blink every once in a while
as a result.

So, I want to be able to do this modification permanently.  Has
anyone hacked the Windows resource table and found where the cursors
are stored?  Or is there a better way to do this?
