Hi,
While installing xcursor-themes I noticed that the config instructions
at are out-of-date. The path specified does not
exist when this port is built. Also the instructions say to use the
XCURSOR_SIZE environment variable to change the pointer size, but (at
least when using jwm) it does nothing. Changing Xcursor.size in
~/.Xdefaults does work though.
