[Wxruby-dev] ListCtrl, Grid, etc.

[Kevin Smith]

So far, I am not at all happy with wxWindows support for multi-column
listboxes. The interface to wxListCtrl is truly horrid, and wxGrid does
way more than I want, so it's too complex. By the way, I added the Grid
class to wxruby tonight. 

The Grid class itself looks pretty cool if you want something that looks
like a spreadsheet. And ListCtrl seems to be fine for a single
column...and not too bad if you want do display some relatively static
data. It just doesn't work for my "real time" status display.

It looks like I'll need to implement my own very simple grid control (in
Ruby) for my Space Monkeys Wx game. At some point, that control will
probably want to migrate into the wxruby distribution.

Unless, of course, I discover something in wxWindows that does what I
want.
