It looks like the render extension cursors are merely generated
from .png files and don't use an intermediate format. The Bluecurve cursors
don't ship with XFree86, but that ones that do (Whiteglass, Redglass)
are in the server tree at xc/programs/xcursorgen/whiteglass/...
Render extension cursors are something I personally don't know
much about, so I don't know if there's a utility to extract data
from the .xcf files.

If the answer is No it can't be done then what about an Xcursor to XYZ

Standard X cursors (like the ones in /usr/include/X11/bitmaps) are
stored in .xbm format, which is already a standard format. The
alpha blended cursors supported by the render extension are in .png,
which is another standard format.
None of the xbm's in the bitmaps directory looks like the cursor on my
screen.
The cursors that are being used on my install appear to come from
/usr/share/icons/Bluecurve/cursors (I have a RH9 install with KDE as the
WM). All of the files in this directory are in X cursor format (they
have an Xcur magic number). I can't seem to find the viewable/editable
versions of these cursors on the net.
Is there a utility that will read the Xcur format and dump just the
graphical portions to some viewable format?
I could then just paste the cursor image into the visuals I'm using for
my documentation. You know what they say a picture is worth, right?
