A tiny program for hiding mouse cursor (I use it all the time :)).

I think “xorg.scm” is a proper place for it or should it be put in a
separate file?

+seconds, and when it finds it has not moved (and no buttons
+are pressed on the mouse, and the cursor is not in the root window)
+it creates a small sub-window as a child of the window the cursor is in.
+The new window installs a cursor of size 1x1 but a mask of
+all 0, ie an invisible cursor.  This allows you to see all the text in
+an xterm or xedit, for example.  The human factors crowd would agree it
+should make things less distracting.")
