Cursor visibility
I have some vision issues and often find it difficult to spot the cursor, specifically in the green text on black background format when using nano/pics editor in Linux. An option to make the cursor blink or choose a cursor color would be a big improvement.
Autorepeat of the cursor keys would be helpful - while the move cursor with your finger is helpful, I find it hard to control precisely

Posting again. Please provide us the ability to change the cursor color. This is a great app; however, I don't use it as much as I would like because of the difficulty in finding the location of the cursor. Come on folks. This should be a trivial change.

It's pity to see the problem reported yet in 2017, and we're ending the 2019 year still having the same.. -- this problem is one of killer show-stoppers ! Please, fix it asap -- why simple not allow user to choose the color of cursor, should be extremely simple option to add, right ?
Rgds,

Agree, this is driving me nuts. Customizable would be ideal.

Editing code in vi is damn near impossble when the cursor is nearly invisible. Dark gray on a black background for the Pro theme? Really guys? Try using this yourselves for a while... It’s a just terrible. You should programmatically chose a contrasting colour, or let us chose our own cursor color.

I have exceptional vision and still find it hard to see the cursor in pro mode. Especially when hunting or searching for words through nano, its impossible to find at times. Highly frustrating.

Me too! I am on an iPad and it is extremely difficult to see the cursor. I am using the black background / white font (Pro). The cursor seems to blend right in to the background. Would be satisfied if the cursor was the same color of the fonts (white).

I agree, the cursor is nearly impossible to see! Very annoying.
Example: try to spot the cursor on a 4 inch display..
