How can I change the cursor from an underscore to a solid block in my program? The MS. C library lets me turn it on and off, but I can't figure out how to set it. Also, is there a FAQ for this group? I'm just beginning to learn DOS, and I'm sure that I will have a lot of repetitive questions. -Mike

As to your first question I only have an answer for Turbo Pascal, but if you are interested in that angle, get /pc/tspa23##.arc. But if you just need a big cursor for your PC, not for your program code, take a look at /pc/ts/tsutld18.arc, available from our site. As to the second question, there is no FAQ that I know of for this group, but Otto Makela (otto@jyu.fi) has been cosidering writing one. There is some related information in /pc/ts/tsfaq17d.arc, which is also available from our site. But it is heavily inclined to comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d and comp.lang.pascal. ...................................................................
