No. In general, "turning off the cursor" is a feature of desktop computers (I think the earliest machine that had that option might have been the TRS-80 Model I, running Level II BASIC), not of terminals. Even on high-end graphics terminals, I believe the only way to turn off the text cursor was generally to turn off the text display entirely. -- JHHL
