show_cursor specifies whether to 'hide' the cursor to the right (and
![](/@@/translation-newline)
bottom, if possible) of the screen, or to place it to the left of the
![](/@@/translation-newline)
current link in documents, or current option in select popup windows.
![](/@@/translation-newline)
Positioning the cursor to the left of the current link or option is
![](/@@/translation-newline)
helpful for speech or braille interfaces, and when the terminal is
![](/@@/translation-newline)
one which does not distinguish the current link based on highlighting
![](/@@/translation-newline)
or color. A value of "on" will set positioning to the left as the
![](/@@/translation-newline)
default while a value of "off" will set 'hiding' of the cursor.
![](/@@/translation-newline)
The default can be overridden via the -show_cursor command line toggle.
