I found your message (http://www.directfb.org/mailinglists/directfb-users/2003/07-2003/msg00127.html) about changing the cursor, but it seems incomplete or assumes knowledge the normal user may not have. And it seems to be the only question of its kind.
What is hinted at there is that cursor.dat needs to be replaced with another ARGB image. Here are my questions:
1. How do you create an ARGB image? Do I use The Gimp, XV, XnView, ImageMagick? And what extension will create a valid file on the tools that can use the extension to define the format like Gimp?
2. Is there an easier way to define the cursor instead of physically replacing it? Like a global variable that can define the absolute path to any valid image.
I realize you are early in development yet, but ease of configuration can make adoption from a wider audience happen quicker.
later
