Problem
When taking screen shots for use in tutorials, it would be really helpful to include the mouse cursor in the picture, but I've found that most screenshot tools (including those that ship with Windows) hide the cursor from the screenshot. How can I take a screenshot on Windows which includes the mouse cursor?
