I would like to configure a boxed text cursor without blinking, it is possible in Squeak or Pharo?
Pharo 1.2 and later: "Settings Browser > Code Browser > Editing" has various preferences related to the cursor: "Blinking text cursor", "Dumbbell-shaped text cursor", and "Walk along displayed line".
Additionally you can change the color of the cursor by evaluating "NewParagraph insertionPointColor: Color red", not sure why there is no setting.
