Question

How do I get aquamacs to show a solid and blinking cursor? http://aquamacs.org/

With a lot of work we managed to get it to show a hollow and blinking box, instead of just a blinking vertical line, but that is often just too hard to see.

Answer 1

This works with NT Emacs:

(blink-cursor-mode)

Should work with Aquamacs, too.

If the cursor is not a solid box (here, by default, it is), add

(setq-default cursor-type 'box)
