cur
What is a .cur file?
image/x-icon
A cursor file (.cur) is a Windows mouse-pointer image using the same container structure as an .ico, distinguished by a type field and per-image hotspot coordinates that mark the cursor's active point. It holds one or more bitmap images at different sizes, typically 32×32.
How to use a .cur file
Use an example .cur file to test cursor and icon parsers, CSS custom-cursor loading, and ICO/CUR converters, or to verify that a tool reads the embedded hotspot correctly.
