- The TOS cursor should only appear if you have the file as a .TOS filename, or in
- DevPac if running without GEM (menu item).
- To get rid of the cursor, look at XBIOS cursconf().
-
- When a dialog is removed, GEM redraws the desktop in what it considers to be the
- correct colours. I think that unless you redefine the backdrop (don't ask me how)
- then you'll just have to comply with GEM's preferences. Anyone?
-
- Hope that makes sense...
