My CLIM Kung Fu is not so great, but it seems a slot on the application frame might be more to your liking? I would be interested if there is some better, more canonical approach...

Hi,
I made a simple implementation of prompt-for-items-from-list. Any comments? In particular, I am wondering if :items *items* using a special variable is the only way to initialize the list-pane.
Regards, Kilian
(defvar *items*)
(define-application-frame items-from-list () ((exit-command :accessor exit-command)) (:menu-bar t) (:panes (list (make-pane 'list-pane :mode :nonexclusive :items *items*))) (:layouts (default (scrolling (:scroll-bar :vertical) list))))
(macrolet ((frob (command) `(define-items-from-list-command (,command :name t :menu t) () (setf (exit-command *application-frame*) ',command) (frame-exit *application-frame*)))) (frob com-ok) (frob com-cancel))
(defun prompt-for-items-from-list (items) (flet ((get-list-pane (frame) (find-pane-named frame 'list))) (let* ((*items* items) (frame (make-application-frame 'items-from-list))) (run-frame-top-level frame) (ecase (exit-command frame) (com-ok (values (gadget-value (get-list-pane frame)) t)) (com-cancel (values nil nil))))))
