* PURPOSE: demonstrate GetConsoleCursorInfo, SetConsoleCursorInfo,   *
*          and SetConsoleCursorPosition. Show the current cursor     *
*          information, then have the cursor follow the mouse around *
*          the screen. Shrink the cursor size when the user clicks   *
*          one button, and grow the cursor when he clicks the other. *
*                                                                    *
* INPUT: the console output handle to write to and manipulate the    *
*        cursor for.                                                 *
