  • mouse trails — (operating system)   A feature (usually of Graphical User Interfaces) which causes the mouse pointer to leave a trail across the screen.

When the mouse moves, it appears to leave a trail of pointers behind it, and this can dramatically increase the visibility of the pointer when using LCD screens. The older ones had such long persistence that a single mouse pointer, when moving, tended to be completely invisible, and on a cluttered screen, was very difficult to find.
