We have NeXT computers (the Cubes) here at St. Olaf, and, compared to our other terminals, they're a godsend. However, because of a visual disability I have, I keep coming up against a big nuisance: I keep losing track of the mouse pointer, ie. I can't see it on the screen, especially in its I-beam form. This might be a hopeless search, but are there any programs available for the NeXT in which either the cursor size can be changed or a key can be pressed and a flashing circle with about a 1" radius or so appears around the cursor for a second or so (a feature I have on my Macintosh w/2-page monitor at work)? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please respond via email if you have anything to offer. Christopher Smith St. Olaf College, Northfield MN Internet: smithc@stolaf.edu

The simplest way is to enable your right mouse button. If you pressed the right mouse button, the menu bar will appear, and you know where is the cursor. -- Mul | Alt. address: sulistio@futon.sfsu.edu sulistio@sutro.sfsu.edu | sulistio@sfsuvax1.sfsu.edu #include "std/disclaimer.h" | mul@wet.UUCP (UUCP e-mail) ^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
