Re-hello.

I wasn't aware of the ctypes module at all.
It really works well and I solved this problem by using ctypes to access functions in libXfixes.so.

The final code is here:
http://www.futuredesktop.com/tmp/read_cursor_image.py

# Running it on Linux.
# Sleep a while so you have time to position the mouse-pointer/cursor.
$ sleep 5; python read_cursor_image.py

# The cursor image is saved to cursor1.png

Many thanks!

The c-code is here: http://code.google.com/p/gscreendump/source/browse/trunk/src/sd_xutils.c

Standard python module ctypes allows to call any function from
a shared library. Try to load xlib and call these XFixes-functions.
