WB 1.x mouse pointers for Windows
Does anyone have a nice 1.2/3 Workbench mouse pointer set, to use in Windows? I've found these, quite nice, but not 1.x. It's strange he describes them as 'cursors'... or not?

They're mouse cursors in the PC world. This goes back to the old character UIs when the mouse position was indeed depicted with another text cursor.

Just wanted to add that if anyone wants to draw their own Windows cursors, ArtCursors is the best program!

The Topaz New font doesn't work properly in Word 2010 (characters very close to each other). It's ok on WordPad. Strange.

8-bit fonts (C64, Atari, ZX Spectrum, etc.): http://damieng.com/blog/2011/02/20/t...s-system-fonts 16-bit fonts (Amiga, Atari, Macintosh, etc.): http://damieng.com/blog/2011/03/27/t...s-system-fonts To see them I use MetaPad and change the colors of the editor to mimic the colors of the systems. Metapad support two different templates of color and font at the same time, so when my eyes are tired of one color I click the button and the color changes automatically. PS: These old fonts are wonderful for coding. I never miss them again! |
