{
    internal class Common
    {
        public static Cursor GetLineSelectionCursor()
        {
            Cursor result = null;
            /*                     v-- Namespace
             *                     v              v-- folder name
             */                    v              v         v-- file name --v
            string resourceName = "Maestro.SongUi.Resources.SelectTextLine.cur";
            Stream s = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream(resourceName);

            if (s != null)
                result = new Cursor(s);

            return result;
        }
    }
}
