Cursor

A cursor is a movable and sometimes blinking symbol that shows you where you are clicking on the computer. Sometimes known as “mouse pointer.”

History: The literal meaning of the original Latin word cursor expresses the idea of someone or something that runs. Especially in the plural, Cursores 'runners', it was the name of certain functions, originally messengers.
