hand-cursor

A predefined cursor that looks like a human hand with one finger pointing at the current mouse cursor position. The value is actually a cursor handle, but only on GTK. The value is nil on Windows, where there is no built-in hand cursor.

Rather than using this variable, the platform-independent way to obtain a hand cursor is to call find-cursor on the symbol :hand-cursor. This will return a CG cursor object on all platforms. (On GTK it will use GTK's built-in hand cursor, while on Windows it will use a pixmap supplied by Franz.)
