Same would apply to DOS DESQview users or Windows users. Perhaps there is a
way around this. I defer to someone more informed than I.

Well here they control the size of the cursor. I didn't see the change
either until I made a DRASTIC change. The cursor went from about two
scanlines to a rectangle. The Curstart setting determines where the cursor
starts, and zero means it starts at the baseline of the text. With a Curend
setting of 14, the cursor is a block the same hieght as the text. A setting
of like Curstart 6 Curend 10 would give you a cursor resembling a dash.

Just tried that here, and it didn't work. :-(
