I am open for any suggestions but reasons like "it looks better" have very low priority. If you have real reasons why a cursor should be blinking/underlined/etc., feel free to request these features. But for all other reasons I actually prefer if you implement it yourself and send me a pull-request. It's simply that there is lots of more important stuff to do that I have to implement first before considering minor cosmetic changes.

Another point is that my personal preference (and default xterm, gnome-terminal and konsole behavior) is the cursor as it looks now so I am not really motivated to change that.

But I will pull any changes if they're done properly. Cheers David

Is there a way to change the default cursor in kmscon to blinking one? Thanks.
