Is there a way from assembly to turn off the blinking cursor? I've
searched, including the ROM listing and have not found it. Thanks.

On the IIc and IIGS you can change the cursor to whatever you want

Type

? CHR$(30)" ";

at the prompt. There is a space between the quotes

In assembly it is

300: LDA #1E
JSR FDED
LDA #A0
JSR FDED


OR


GETKEY BIT $C000
BPL GETKEY
LDA $C010


Both will not display a cursor
