Description
If a cursor is set, it will be used when the pointer is in the window.
If the cursor is None, it is equivalent to
XUndefineCursor.
XDefineCursor can generate ``BadCursor''
and ``BadWindow'' errors.
The XUndefineCursor function undoes the effect
of a previous XDefineCursor for this window.

the parent's cursor will now be used.
On the root window, the default cursor is restored.
XUndefineCursor can generate a ``BadWindow'' error.
