Resource files are not frowned upon. The FB editor has a resource file  
containing a 'crsr' 1000 resource (you can see it via a contextual  
Show Package Contents command in the Finder). The freeware Rezilla.app  
can create and edit cursors. The entire code required to display a  
resource cursor consists of two words, for example:
cursor _lineSelCursor
