I tried this today. It improves the pointer situation in Edit, but the
arrow gets chopped up a lot as I move it around.
Something about Edit seems to be hostile to pointers. Nothing else
looks nearly so bad.
But for the degree of improvement in Edit, it sits in memory all the
time occupying 7K, so I may remove it and let Edit function like
keyboard-only.

With the default installation of FreeDOS 1.1 on real hardware (Pentium
II @ 300 MHz, 48 MB, ATI 3D Rage Pro AGP video with 4 MB), I find that
the mouse pointer in Edit with a file open is almost invisible.
There
are partial-image flashes of the expected brown rectangle. But if I
open a menu, then there is a nice solid brown rectangle while the menu
is open.
In the FreeDOS Help system, the pointer is a nice solid gray.
I got the same results with 2 LCD monitors and also a CRT.
I don't have anything additional installed on this system yet so I
don't
know what the behavior will be in other programs.
The mouse pointer has never been pretty in Edit -- it's usually
flashing
but fully visible -- but I have never seen it virtually invisible like
this. Initially I thought there was no pointer until I stepped
through
the Autoexec.bat startup and confirmed that MOUSE does indeed run
successfully, after which I looked harder and saw the visual traces of
the pointer in Edit.
Does anyone have an explanation or solution?
