That's an idea. It's even a good idea. But beyond my capabilities at
present. I've found it easier to program my own versions of the utilities
that mess up the mouse pointer. For instance, TOMSHELL turned out to be my
major problem with the mouse pointer disappearing while running my point
setup, so I wrote Cowboy Shell to handle the switching between Binkley and
the other programs. Viola, the problem is fixed!
