The only way I know of to create one is to use Rezilla to make a crsr

assigned to it, e.g.:
self.imageCanvas.mouseCursor = App.ResourceFork.GetCursor(679)
But resource forks will be phased out at some point. So how does one
"properly" create custom cursors that will remain future-proof?
Seems like a fairly essential and basic requirement.

When Apple quits using resource files themselves, then it might be
time to look for an alternative.
There are still SEVERAL places in the OS that currently create
resource files -- the Finder is the most notable (custom icons on
files, "Open With" settings, Alias files).
