  dcterms:description "The Windows Cursor image file format (CUR) is a graphics file format for static (i.e., non-animated) mouse cursors and serves as a graphical indicator of user interaction based on the current state of the pointing device (e.g., mouse). It was developed by Microsoft as a cursor file format as part of its Windows operating system, beginning with the release of Windows 1.0 in 1981; however, the concept of the cursor or \"pointer\" was first debuted by Douglas Engelbart in 1968 on a Xerox system and this concept carried over to the first Macintosh computer operating system and onward. CUR is extended from the Icon file format (ICO) and is very similar in nature—CUR files serve as a cursor resource that can be a container for multiple images (i.e., BMP) and they have a directory structure. CUR is proprietary and is still in use by Microsoft as a native file format. Due to the prevalence of the Microsoft Windows operating system and its ability to render most CUR files, along with the particular structure of CUR files and how they might relate to other files in context of their usage, it is recommended to retain them as is, with the caveat that CUR files created 1987-2001 (with emphasis on 1987-1995) may possibly contain files from the OS/2 Bitmap family. If this is the case, it is ideal to determine if they can still be rendered in a current Microsoft Windows operating system and if not, converting CUR to PNG can be considered as a possible approach but more research is also needed." ;
