Entirely turn off the mouse

[dud225]

Hello

I'd like to completely turn off the mouse, even when not running a game e.g. on surf mode, as it has no use on devices missing a mouse. This question has been raised several times, but adding poke(0x3FFB,0) in https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/blob/main/config.lua didn't do the trick, the cursor is still appearing when launching TIC-80.
I've tried to call SDL_ShowCursor(SDL_DISABLE) in the start function to no avail.
Am I missing something?

Also, try to comment this line https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/blob/main/src/system/sdl/main.c#L676
Sorry for the delay with the response

Here is what I tried:

but the cursor is still showing up at the middle of the screen.

Also try to disable blitCursor() function in studio.c

Thanks it worked.
Actually it isn't necessary to add SDL_ShowCursor(SDL_DISABLE), just commenting blitCursor() is enough.

Commenting blitCursor() function in studio.c does the trick
