Comment 1 Sven Neumann 2006-01-12 10:32:08 UTC 
Changed all over the place in the CVS version. We can't do such string changes in the stable branch though. Closing as FIXED.

	* app/actions/actions.c
	* app/actions/cursor-info-actions.c
	* app/actions/dialogs-actions.c
	* app/config/gimprc-blurbs.h
	* app/dialogs/dialogs.c
	* app/dialogs/preferences-dialog.c
	* app/widgets/gimphelp-ids.h: use the term Pointer instead of
	Cursor when refering to the mouse pointer (bug #326700).
Comment 2 Sven Neumann 2006-01-12 10:50:01 UTC 
Two more occurences changed:

2006-01-12  Sven Neumann  <sven@gimp.org>

	* plug-ins/common/flarefx.c: renamed to "Lens Flare", don't use
	the term "Cursor" incorrectly (bug #326700).

	* plug-ins/common/nova.c: renamed to "Supernova", don't use the
	term "Cursor" incorrectly (bug #326700).
