Question: how to set cursor type (NONE/Underline/Block) and color when window is opened and all output is done through "console.device"? Do I use I checked a few programs and they appear to always have the cursor color in the last color for the screen, i.e. 3 bit planes, cursor is color 7, and they always seem to have a block cursor. If these attributes are unchangable that is ok, but is it possible say to remove the cursor without giving up the last color by forcing it to match the color 0. Cursor would be implemented with a sprite or something…
