How can I turn off the cursor, in a console. I tried crt.consoleoff and it doesnt actually remove the cursor?

move it off screen?
actually you can use the SetConsoleCursorInfo
you first need to fill a TConsole_Cursor_Info and then pass that along..

Depending on what you're using, to name a few:
nCRT.nCursor(cOFF)
ncurses.curs_set(0)
(low-level routine)
video.setCursorType(crHidden)
But they all have in common, that they require some
refresh
in order to show an effect.

@nugax
: you can use
Crt.CursorOff
and
Crt.CursorOn
– it works.
