+.SH DESCRIPTION
+X provides a set of standard cursor shapes in a special font named
+cursor.
+Applications are encouraged to use this interface for their cursors
+because the font can be customized for the individual display type.
+The shape argument specifies which glyph of the standard fonts
+to use.
+.LP
+The hotspot comes from the information stored in the cursor font.
+The initial colors of a cursor are a black foreground and a white
+background (see
+.ZN XRecolorCursor ).
+.LP
+.ZN XCreateFontCursor
+can generate
+.ZN BadAlloc
+and
+.ZN BadValue
+errors.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XCreatePixmapCursor
+function creates a cursor and returns the cursor ID associated with it.
+The foreground and background RGB values must be specified using
+foreground_color and background_color,
+even if the X server only has a
+.ZN StaticGray
+or
+.ZN GrayScale
+screen.
+The foreground color is used for the pixels set to 1 in the
+source, and the background color is used for the pixels set to 0.
+Both source and mask, if specified, must have depth one (or a
+.ZN BadMatch
+error results) but can have any root.
+The mask argument defines the shape of the cursor.
+The pixels set to 1 in the mask define which source pixels are displayed,
+and the pixels set to 0 define which pixels are ignored.
+If no mask is given,
+all pixels of the source are displayed.
+The mask, if present, must be the same size as the pixmap defined by the
+source argument, or a
+.ZN BadMatch
+error results.
+The hotspot must be a point within the source,
+or a
+.ZN BadMatch
+error results.
+.LP
+The components of the cursor can be transformed arbitrarily to meet
+display limitations.
+The pixmaps can be freed immediately if no further explicit references
+to them are to be made.
+Subsequent drawing in the source or mask pixmap has an undefined effect on the
+cursor.
+The X server might or might not make a copy of the pixmap.
+.LP
+.ZN XCreatePixmapCursor
+can generate
+.ZN BadAlloc
+and
+.ZN BadPixmap
+errors.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XCreateGlyphCursor
+function is similar to
+.ZN XCreatePixmapCursor
+except that the source and mask bitmaps are obtained from the specified
+font glyphs.
+The source_char must be a defined glyph in source_font,
+or a
+.ZN BadValue
+error results.
+If mask_font is given,
+mask_char must be a defined glyph in mask_font,
+or a
+.ZN BadValue
+error results.
+The mask_font and character are optional.
+The origins of the source_char and mask_char (if defined) glyphs are
+positioned coincidently and define the hotspot.
+The source_char and mask_char need not have the same bounding box metrics,
+and there is no restriction on the placement of the hotspot relative to the bounding
+boxes.
+If no mask_char is given, all pixels of the source are displayed.
+You can free the fonts immediately by calling
+.ZN XFreeFont
+if no further explicit references to them are to be made.
+.LP
+For 2-byte matrix fonts,
+the 16-bit value should be formed with the byte1
+member in the most significant byte and the byte2 member in the
+least significant byte.
+.LP
+.ZN XCreateGlyphCursor
+can generate
+.ZN BadAlloc ,
+.ZN BadFont ,
+and
+.ZN BadValue
+errors.
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadAlloc
+The server failed to allocate the requested resource or server memory.
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadFont
+A value for a Font or GContext argument does not name a defined Font.
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadMatch
+Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and range but fails
+to match in some other way required by the request.
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadPixmap
+A value for a Pixmap argument does not name a defined Pixmap.
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadValue
+Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request.
+Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined
+by the argument's type is accepted. Any argument defined as a set of
+alternatives can generate this error.
