Re: Changing cursors

[Marco Quezada <mquezada nlxcorp com>]

You can use something like this:

gdk_window_set_cursor(GTK_WIDGET(window)->window,

gdk_cursor_new(GDK_WATCH));
gdk_flush();

This will use the default cursors defined in gdkcursors.h

If you want the cursor to revert to the WM default just use NULL as the
argument in gdk_cursor_new().
