Subject: grabbing the mouse cursor
I'm making a radically advanced help system for linux.
Is there a way to grab the current mouse cursor icon? (either by id or
picture) Or grab an entire screenshot with the current mouse pointer
(hourglass, pointer, etc.)?
XQueryPointer - only tells the mouse position
XGetImage - grabs the screen without the mouse
XGetWindowAttributes - doesn't return a needed Cursor
Do I have to manually hack the X server code? If so, any suggestions on
what to do?
Thanks!
Chris
