DESCRIPTION
glutSetCursor changes the cursor image of the current window. Each
call requests the window system change the cursor appropriately. The
cursor image when a window is created is GLUT_CURSOR_INHERIT. The exact
cursor images used are implementation dependent. The intent is for the
image to convey the meaning of the cursor name. For a top-level window,
GLUT_CURSOR_INHERIT uses the default window system cursor.
X IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
GLUT for X uses SGI's _SGI_CROSSHAIR_CURSOR convention to access a
full-screen cross-hair cursor if possible.
