FORTRAN 77 SPECIFICATION
     subroutine curson

     subroutine cursof

PARAMETERS
     none

DESCRIPTION
     curson and cursof control the visibility of the cursor in the current
     window.  The default is curson.

     Use getcur to find out if the cursor is visible.

     getcur

NOTE
     This routine is available only in immediate mode.

BUG
     Cursor visibility is a global resource.  The calls curson and cursof
     control cursor visibility regardless of its position on the screen.  If a
     process turns off the cursor, it will remain off until that process is
     killed or the cursor is turned back on by a call to curson.
