- My copy of OSF/Motif Programmer's Reference (1.0) lists several cursor
- pixmap names that are included with Motif on the last page of the entry
- for XmRowColumn. "hourglass" is not listed, but "clock", "coffee_mug",
- and "Watch" are. The pixmap files for these must be *somewhere*, no? Try
- UNIX find.
