successfully hides the cursor.
tput cvvis
should unhide it, but it doesn't.
Any idea what the problem might be?

In the ncurses terminal database,
cvvis
is used as documented in the terminfo manual page:and if there is no difference between normal and very visible, the
cvvis
capability is usually omitted. The feature is used incurs_set
:The
terminfo(5)
manual page also saysSome terminal descriptions may (incorrectly) equate
cvvis
andcnorm
, since some emacs configurations assume thatcvvis
is always set.
