Allow different cursor shapes #927

Open StavromulaBeta opened 3 years ago

StavromulaBeta commented 3 years ago

I have configured my terminal emulator to use an underline cursor instead of the usual block cursor. One thing that I have noticed is that this does not work in Vis - the cursor simply appears as a block until I exit the editor. I have tested this in Urxvt and Xterm.

Is there any way that we can have a configuration option to change the cursor, or perhaps an option to use the terminal's default cursor? I understand that having multiple underline cursors is impossible.
