I would like to change the shape of the pointer. I use an iBook with OS X 10.3 Is it possible? How?
Thanx

My guess would be to hunt down the image files OSX uses and replace them with your ones making sure there the same format,size, name etc.
Have no idea otherwise.

You could try Unsanity's Mighty Mouse. Hope that helps.

Mighty Mosue
will do it.
Warning: this is a "haxie" that uses the APE framework. Many people have reported a variety of problems with APE. For some it works flawlessly; for others it's terrible. Your mileage may vary.

Good luck. They're in the kernel's binary.

Brad's holding out on you. He has the entire kernel mapped and is currently reverse engineering it.
