Constructs a cursor by passing an array of bits (Motif and Xt only). {\it maskBits} is used only under Motif.
If either {\it hotSpotX} or {\it hotSpotY} is -1, the hotspot will be the centre of the cursor image (Motif only).
-\func{}{wxCursor}{\param{const wxString\& }{cursorName}, \param{const long }{type}, \param{const int }{hotSpotX=0}, \param{const int }{hotSpotY=0}}
+\func{}{wxCursor}{\param{const wxString\& }{cursorName}, \param{long }{type}, \param{int }{hotSpotX=0}, \param{int }{hotSpotY=0}}
Constructs a cursor by passing a string resource name or filename.
+On MacOS when specifying a string resource name, first the color cursors 'crsr' and then the black/white cursors 'CURS' in the resource chain are scanned through.
+
{\it hotSpotX} and {\it hotSpotY} are currently only used under Windows when loading from an
icon file, to specify the cursor hotspot relative to the top left of the image.

Constructs a cursor using a cursor identifier.
-\func{}{wxCursor}{\param{const wxCursor\&}{ cursor}}

-Copy constructor. This uses reference counting so is a cheap operation.
+Constructs a cursor from a wxImage. The cursor is monochrome, colors with the RGB elements all greater
+than 127 will be foreground, colors less than this background. The mask (if any) will be used as transparent.
-\func{}{wxCursor}{\param{const wxCursor*}{ cursor}}
+In MSW the foreground will be white and the background black. The cursor is resized to 32x32
+In GTK, the two most frequent colors will be used for foreground and background. The cursor will be displayed
+at the size of the image.
+On MacOS the cursor is resized to 16x16 and currently only shown as black/white (mask respected).

Destroys the cursor. A cursor can be reused for more
than one window, and does not get destroyed when the window is
destroyed. wxWindows destroys all cursors on application exit, although
