Mr Ken Ray, our Son of Thunder, has rounded off the thread beautifully.
Thanks Ken!
Hopefully, in the next RR release, we will be able to say "set the cursor to
hand" on all platforms....

if the environment is "development" then
  set the cursor to hand
else
  switch (the platform)
    case "Win32"
      set the cursor to hand  -- id 28
      break
    case "MacOS"
      set the cursor to 8
      break
    case "Linux
      set the cursor to 10
      break
  end switch
end if
