Yes, I noted TreeView and ListStore but that seemed too complicated for
such a basic operation as list and select (optional).  Thanks for the

I suspect that it will have to be Tk in the end - 15 years of experience.
Just need to figure out why encapsulation does not work.  Examples from
documentation (Pickaxe?) do not work as published.
