aplonis has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

My copy of Mastering Perl/Tk said TList indexed just like Listbox. But I find nothing on how to retrieve the current selection. I tried to retrieve like for Listbox thus, 

@foo = tlist_foo->curselection();

[download]
but it fails like so 
Tk::Error: Failed to AUTOLOAD 'Tk::TList::curselection' at c:/Perl/sit
+e/lib/Tk/Derived.pm line 461

[download]
.

How do I retrieve for TList, please?

Re: Tk TList, no cursellection ?

    What you want (as documented in Tk::TList) is this: 
    @foo = $tlist_foo->info('selection');

    (Your example code is missing a '$' but I assume that's a typo because your script wouldn't have compiled that way).
