pardon my capital letters, but i am getting tired of trying
to get that darn little pointer to change its color.  this is
what i am trying to use(note, i use a local minibuffer):

;; ------ Pointer color
(cursor-color               "green")  ;; Don't use "epoch::" prefix with this one, don't know why.   jwv 6-08-93
(push '(cursor-color        "green") epoch::screen-properties)

;; ------ Text cursor background
(epoch::cursor-background   "yellow")
(push '(cursor-background   "yellow") epoch::screen-properties)

;; ------ Text cursor foreground
(epoch::cursor-foreground   (background))  
(push '(cursor-foreground   (background)) epoch::screen-properties)


why won't this work????????????????????????????????????????

the pointer just stays black, and in this case, "black is NOT beautiful".

thanks for any help.
