rwallace appears to have been talking about moving the cursor not moving the pointer.

  Or, to use Windows terminology, moving the caret.

    In the 1980s and 1990s, yes. But not for some years, now. It was pointed out on Wikipedia back in 2008 that the cursor+pointer terminology (of Presentation Manager) has been displacing the caret+cursor terminology (of Windows) in Microsoft documentation in (at the time) recent additions to the doco. It was also pointed out that Microsoft's own style manual was (at the time) now recommending "pointer" but has "insertion point" rather than "cursor".
