'''multicolumn listbox''' presents the various methods and widgets for
displaying multiple columns of data



** See Also **

   [table]:   



** Description **


There are many ways of constructing simple table without using any specialized
table widget. For example, packing a list of [listbox]es; layout many a [entry]
/ [label] using [grid] geometry manager of [tk] or the much older '''table'''
geometry manager from [BLT].



** Widgets **

   [ttk::treeview]:   includes an example of a muli-column list

   [tablelist]:   pure Tcl, edit, images, sort, reorder columns.  A community favourite

   [mclistbox]:   pure Tcl

   [blt] heirtable:   images?, heirarchical, sort

   [mkWidgets] listcontrol:   

   [tktable]:   creates a widget command called ''table'' and installs its doc as tkTable (even though to require the package, you use '''Tktable''').  Provides a widget with rows and column display.  Think framework on which you can display tabular data or even build up to a spreadsheet.

** Discussion **

[LV] 2007-12-18: I was looking at http://extjs.com/ , which provides a
JavaScript table with many useful features. One of the features that I
particularly liked was how by default, if the user makes a change in a table
''cell'', the widget adds a ''tic mark'' indicating that it has been changed.
That isn't the only nice feature - but certain one that I found appealing.
Does anyone know of a Tk based table [widget] that provides that sort of
functionality built in?
