Microsoft Windows Cursor
The standard format for static mouse cursors on Microsoft Windows.
The CUR format is the standard file format for static mouse cursors in the Microsoft Windows operating system. It is structurally almost identical to the ICO (Icon) format, with one key difference: the header contains a defined 'hotspot'. The hotspot specifies the exact pixel coordinate (x, y) that registers the click, such as the tip of an arrow pointer.
A CUR file starts with a header similar to an ICO file, but the 'image type' field is set to 2 (Cursor) instead of 1 (Icon). For each image in the file (it can contain multiple sizes/depths), the directory entry stores the hotspot X and Y coordinates instead of the color planes/bpp fields found in ICOs. The image data itself is typically a BMP with a 1-bit AND mask for transparency, or a PNG in modern versions.
Introduced with Windows 1.0, the format has evolved alongside Windows. Originally supporting only monochrome, it grew to support 16 colors, 256 colors, and finally 32-bit alpha-blended cursors in Windows XP.
JPEG 2000 Code Stream
Another extension for the raw JPEG 2000 code stream.
J2K is functionality identical to J2C. It represents a raw JPEG 2000 codestream without the JP2 file format wrapper. It is often used interchangeably with J2C and JPC in technical contexts.
Like J2C, a J2K file contains the wavelet-compressed image data (SOP/EPH markers). It relies on the decoder to interpret the stream markers correctly without the 'boxes' found in the JP2 container format.
Part of the ISO/IEC 15444-1 standard. The multiple extensions (.j2k, .j2c, .jpc) arose from different vendor implementations early in the standard's life.
