Yesterday I ordered a Crucial X6 (1TB) from Amazon, and ignored the usual
blandishments to get it today with Prime. As usual I chose the free delivery
option and they said Sunday delivery. In the event it arrived today.

The actual install went quite smoothly onto the X6, it offered to migrate
everything from the Catalina (internal) SSD, and I was even able to make my
VirtualBox VMs work.

1) How can I add some colour to window title bars. Even a bit of grey via a
defaults write would be fine.

2) They worked very hard to FUBAR the Preferences. Haven't seen such rubbish
since, oooh, last Monday when I used Win-11.

3) Where is the setting to control the input cursor? Typing the body of this
post, here, it's black. Typing above, in the Subject: line (this is Usenapp),
it's pink.

4) Perhaps I've hit a screen-sharing bug. I share my file-server's screen to a
space on my screen 1 (I have two screens). I initially bring it up on screen
0, in a space there. Then I move it to the space on screen 1. If I then
maximise it, such that it looks just as it would if I plugged screen 1
directly into the file-server, then a large black rectangle appears in the
space on screen 0 just where the file-server's screen appeared before I moved
it to the other screen. But only in that space. If I un-maximise it, the black
rectangle vanishes.

There was a serious screen sharing bug fixed in 14.2.1, what are you
running?
