Solve : cursor help!?

Answer»

is it possible to change the cursor everytime I run my .bat file?
thanks!Do you mean real MS-DOS or a Windows command window? If Windows, click the Properties icon in the top left corner and select Small, Medium or Large.

ms dos.
make it as .bat if possible? Code: [Select]You can write a short program to modify the MS-DOS cursor. One way to do this is by creating and executing a short Debug script.
The changes made are temporary in memory. Therefore, if the goal is to have the cursor altered at all times, it will be necessary to
insert a line in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to call the cursor program on boot.

To change the appearance of the MS-DOS cursor, enter the following at the command prompt:

Command Prompt          Enter This
--------------          ----------

C:\>                    debug <press ENTER>
-                       a100 <press ENTER>
287E:0100               mov ah,01 <press ENTER>
287E:0102               mov cx,010n <press ENTER>  (n range=1-4)
287E:0105               int 10 <press ENTER>
287E:0107               int 20 <press ENTER>
287E:0109               <press ENTER>
-                       n C:\cursor.com <press ENTER>
-                       rcx <press ENTER>
CX 0000
:                       9 <press ENTER>
-                       w <press ENTER>
Writing 00009 bytes
-                       q <press ENTER>

C:\>


Changing the value of n (1-4) will RESULT in different appearances for the cursor, where n=4 is a large cursor.
thanks! I'll try that one.

I am GUESSING this is what he wants:

"What if I want the image of the cursor to change?"The DOS cursor is just another text character; usually a block or an underscore; it possible to configure how many PIXELS are lit on a row-byrow basis. There is no "image".
oopzzz! sorry for the wrong gramming^^
what if the image of the cursor is the one that will change?

Do you mean real MS-DOS or a Windows command window?
any suggestion pls...You want to change the DEFAULT Windows cursor from an arrow to something else? Why?
to add unique feature everytime I run my system.Then get and install a cursor editor program, or look at the cursor options in Control Panel.
so there's no possibility to change it through a .bat code? RUNS ONLY WHEN I RUN MY .EXE
