2) how to grab a mouse pointer too? Like Skype, or ManyCam do, for example?
They allow to save an image (or video) together with the cursor. How did
they do that?

The display buffers dont contain the mouse pointer, it's composited into the final display image on the fly as it were. Traditionally, one would obtain the pointer position then composite your own version of the pointer bitmap after the grab.
Whether this has been streamlined in current versions of OSX, I couldn't say.
