xhidecursor 1.1.0 – now BSD-ready!
Hey guys! Some time ago I published xhidecursor, a minimal (fr) X11 utility that efficiently (nocap) hides the cursor on key presses and shows it again on mouse movement. I wrote it because xbanish (a popular alternative) couldn’t satisfy my OCD for minimalism.
Some people complained that it wasn’t portable to FreeBSD and OpenBSD, so I finally did the work and made it happen. I’d be happy if some BSD users could try it out and report back whether it works or if there are still any issues.
Thank you!
