khesara

khesara(type) | khesara(type, x, y)

khesara is the Setswana word for cursor — the thing that shows where you are on the screen. You give it one of MOTSWI, SEFAPAANO, SEATLA, SUTA, MOKWALO or LETA.

You may also give it a CSS name such as 'grab' or 'zoom-in', or a path to an image: khesara('target.png', 8, 8). The two numbers that follow mark the point inside the image that does the pointing. The image must be small — 32×32 pixels or less.

letshwao is not the word. Setswana ordinarily speaks of a letshwao la peba for the mouse pointer, but in Bopa letshwao is the name of char — a single letter or mark. So Bopa takes the attested computing word, khesara, and leaves letshwao where it was.
