in reply to Binding mouse clicks in perl/Tk

You have bound probably not the exact thing you wanted. This binds button release for button one (left button) and two (middle button). Try
$list_box->bind('<Button-1>', sub { my $indx = $list_box->curselection(); my $selected_object = $list_box->get($indx); }); $list_box->bind('<Double-Button-1>', sub{ print “\nuser clicked twice”; });
All of this good event binder information is in perldoc Tk::bind.
