What is Tk::CursorControl ? This module offers a Tk programmer the functionality of warping, moving, confining or hiding a mouse cursor. For those of you who think this is a scary thought. At ease! Have a look at some of the suggested uses in the POD. If you use Windows, I can guarantee that your cursor has been 'confined' and 'warped' numerous times...and you likely didn't even know it or think twice about it. Subtle use is the key !! Install like you would any other perl module (where X.X is the version number you have downloaded): gzip -d Tk-CursorControl-X.X.tar.gz tar -xvf Tk-CursorControl-X.X.tar cd Tk-CursorControl-X.X perl Makefile.PL make make test #see NOTE below make install For Windows and ActiveState Perl, replace "make" with "nmake". If you do not have the Visual C++ compiler available or have nmake installed on your system then just copy the following files to C:\Perl\lib\site\Tk : CursorControl.pm trans_cur.xbm trans_cur.mask NOTE: This distribution comes with a 'widget' demonstration which should be available after a make install. If you wish to view this demo during the install stage, do a: make demo ..after 'make test'. To view the demonstration after final installation, run the 'widget' demonstration which should already be in your PATH. Just invoke the command by typing 'widget' (without the quotes) at a command prompt. Under the "User Contributed Demonstration" list you should see a CursorControl entry.
