here is how u can change the shape of ur mouseptr in gvim.
:set mouseshape=n:pencil
this will change the shape of the mouseptr to pencil in normal mode.
u can choose different shapes for different modes. see :h mouseshape
Want more shapes?
Then look for the file cursorfont.h in ur X11/ directory.
This file contains lots of cursor shape #define definitions, like
.
#define XC_heart 62
.
now :set mouseshape=n:62 will set the shape of the mouseptr to heart
in normal mode.
-ncr
