TNX.
3. Question:
How should I handle the following parameters required by
XCreatePixmapCursor() ?
Pixmap /* source */,
Pixmap /* mask */,
XColor* /* foreground_color */,
XColor* /* background_color */,
unsigned int /* x */,
unsigned int /* y */
As Marcus said above, they shouldn't be pre-defined. On the other
side, I won't put them into the properties, because the they don't
have to be dependent on X! They have to fit with other possible
targets as well!
