Large cursor support: how to?

Hello,

I am using pretty large cursors on Windows and OSX since my eyesight
isn't that great.

When using Pharo on OSX, the cursor is superb when in OSX apps, but in
Pharo, the cursor is that ugly magnified 16x16 kind of form.

I had a look in there and all cursors appear to be that kind of size.

How would you go in changing that cursor support to support larger cursor forms?

One thing which is great in Pharo is the ability to change all fonts
at will, and set things up for a pretty neat visually accessible
environment (large fonts take their toll on performance and memory but
that's another story).

So, can someone give me some pointers?

TIA
Phil

You'll find the cursor drawing code in... make sure you're sitting down... Paragraph>>#displaySelectionInLine:on:

The simplest hack would be "Editor dumbbellCursor: true." and then override #caretWidth to your liking (4 seems pretty visible).

WTF!!!!!!!!

That cursor I know of (it has been changed to a red thing with two
triangles over here).

What I meant was the mouse cursor.

Thanks anyway!
