[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Turning cursor on/off in T.P.

tommie@psivax.UUCP (Tom Levin) (11/25/86)

Anyone have luck turning the cursor on/off in turbo pascal?
I have been trying to do this using the "set cursor" bios
routine.  I can turn the cursor off, but when I try turning
it back on to read in data, the cursor doesn't become visible
until I hit the backspace key.  Then it goes on and off randomly.
What gives?

Thanks in advance.
