The cursor package is intended to display all available cursors on the specific platform.

[LV] Anyone know a way to create multi-colored and/or animated, cursors?

[PT] 17-Jun-2005: On Windows you can load system cursors for use as the Tk cursor for a given
window. Windows supports the use of animated cursors by using .ani files. On WindowsXP the following
will load an animated cursor (the arrow's tail wags):
 package require Tk
 . configure -cursor @c:/windows/Cursors/wagtail.ani

[MG] After looking at the wagtail cursor, and realising Windows had a load of animated cursors in there I hadn't been away of, I wrote a quick-and-dirty script for browsing through them, which I'll share here in case anyone else wants it.

 package require Tk
 set pattern *.ani ;# animated cursors only
 #set pattern *.cur ;# only non-animated cursors
 #set pattern {{*.cur,*.ani}} ;# all cursors
 set list [glob -dir c:/windows/cursors $pattern]
 set x -1
 bind all <Button-1> advance
 bind all <Button-3> advanceBack
 pack [label .l -text "Click to start!"] -side bottom
 pack [frame .f -height 150 -width 150] -side top
 proc advance {} {
   global list x
   incr x
   if { [llength $list] == $x } {
        set x 0
      }
   foreach w [list . .f .l] {
       $w config -cursor @[lindex $list $x]
      }
   .l config -text "[lindex $list $x]\n[expr {$x+1}] of [llength $list]"
 };# advance
 
 proc advanceBack {} {
   global x
   if { $x >= "0" } {
        incr x -1
      }
 
   foreach w [list . .l .f] {
        $w config -cursor {}
      }
   .l config -text "Click to resume..."
 };# advanceBack
 
Just click to more forwards one (or go back to the start, if you're at the end), and right-click to "pause", and return to the default cursor, {}. (Right-clicking multiple times will backtrack through them, though it won't tell you it's doing so, and won't return to the end, when you go further back than the start.)
