- Actually, as soon as I observed this behavior, I knew what was happening
- and I immediately went to the config program and changed the seetings to
- NON-graphical mouse-pointer and windows (I'm talking about the Norton
- config program mind you).
-
- After that, the mouse cursor disappeared! To my delighted surprise, the
- invisible Norton mouse cursor now correspended with the OS/2 cursor
- (running in a window). So, I just clicked with the OS/2 cursor on buttons
- in a text program in a DOS window... and it worked great!
