Hi,

in emacs -Q, eval

  (mouse-avoidance-mode 'proteus)

This animates with random pointer shapes.  The problem is that it
doesn't restore the `x-pointer-shape' after an animation.  If you are
unlucky, you end up with an invisible pointer over text areas after the
animation.  Not good.


BTW:  If I eval

  (mouse-avoidance-mode 'proteus)

in Emacs 24 (GNU Emacs 24.0.91.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.2.2)
of 2011-11-21 on keller, modified by Debian), this seems to have no
effect at all.  I saw no related change in the News file.

Regards,
Michael

Hi again,

a little addition (feature request): it would be good it the animation
would stop when you move the mouse.  Currently, if the animation happens
and you move the mouse, argh!, the mouse is still moving around and
changing its shape.

- Michael.
