Hi all--
A professor here has asked me to look for two items for his Mac IIcx:
* an INIT, or the like, that will enlarge the cursor size
for his two-page monitor, because he can barely see it.
* a screen inverter; this needs to either just reverse black and
white, or preferrably the entire colour table, but the most
important thing is that it switch black and white on a IIcx.
I can probably write these things myself (although the latter may be more
difficult), but I _know_ I've seen references to something like them around
for a while ("BigCursor"? "BigMouse"?) and I'd like to know if they've
been written before I jump the gun. Besides I haven't used Pascal in
years, and that's all I've got for the Mac... :-}
thanks in advance for any help,
Derek L.

Yes there is a tiny progrm called big cursor. Here it is Binhexed and stuff. All you need is stuffit 1.5.1 or greater.

Thanks for posting the Big Cursor program. Unfortunately, it just beeps and quits immediately on the Mac IIci, changing nothing. Ah well, it was originally written in 1985, according to the info fork. I appreciate the effort, though. :-} Derek L. -- + + "When nothing else remains, one must scream.
