Just a request for a setmousecursor() procedure cross platform to display a waitcursor etc and change back to arrow.

A wait cursor for Mac OS X is problematic because Apple's Cocoa framework is designed to automatically display a wait cursor if events haven't been processed for more than 2 seconds. Please take a look into my citations in this posting where I nevertheless posted a cross-platform code example to toggle between the normal arrow cursor and a busy cursor (although it's against Apple's OS X Human Interface Guidelines... :wink:)
