Right. At least, that is the case for Yarn95 versions prior to 0.92.
In Yarn95 (0.92), there is yarn.exe, import.exe, filter.exe, etc.

I am not sure what you mean here. Do you notice this when reading mail
and/or news? Please clarify. It seems as if it has been a long time
since I last used yarnx, so I really haven't noticed anything like
that.

If you are running Yarn95 in a DOS window, i.e. via a shortcut, then, I
think that is the reason why the cursor is there. In my experience, I
have found that it does not control anything in Yarn. Perhaps, this is
due to Yarn not having any mouse features. This is one of the main
things at the top of my (brief) wishlist for Yarn. And, no, I don't
know how one can get rid of it.

Hope this all helps you...

Great! I find souper95 to be far more superior to any other similar
program that I have tried, either DOS- or Windows-based. It especially
puts the Windows programs that I have evaluated to shame. I hope that
you find souper95 a joy to use. I sure do. All you need is a good BAT
file and a shortcut, and you are on your way. Thanks to Chin and anyone
else who has been involved with Souper's development.
