- Description
- A CUR file is a cursor image or animation used for the Windows mouse pointer. It may be an arrow (for general use), a spinning hourglass (for waiting periods), or an I-bar (for text editing).
- Group 4 (G4) used for black and white lossless compression to maintain high-quality images, commonly used in TIFF format compression by fax machines. A picture is seen as black dots and lines on a blank page; the fewer the dots and lines are, the lesser the file size.
