It's been a longstanding TODO to normalize the cursor handling under NS. Both for storing the shape, as mentioned, and also the blink handling. Most of the code that's in there dates from before emacs itself had these features, and since it has been mostly working it's been less pain to keep it working than to rip it out and start afresh with the emacs stuff. Time for that to change, and I'd definitely welcome help or a patch for all or part of it. -Adrian ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emacs-app-dev- mailing list Emacs-app-dev-@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emacs-app-dev-
