- To do an animated cursor the way the Finder does it, you have a acur resource
- with the numbers of the CURS icons in the rotation. Make a copy of your finder
- and save it to disk. Look at the acur and CURS resource with ResEdit.
-
- Then, inyour application, you just keep a variable with the current cursor,
- add one to it, and then do a SetCursor procedure/function.
