Esteemed Monks,

I am using Perl/Tk and Tk::DBI::Table which as a Tk::HList as part of it. I would like to have an action performed when I double click on an entry in the list, my code looks like this: 

# Using the supplied SQL display a table view of the data.
sub doDBItable {
  my ( $dbh, $SQL, $title ) = @_;

  debug("+doDBItable");
  debug("SQL : $SQL");
  if ( not defined $title ) { $title = "List Preview" }
  my $top = MainWindow->new( -title => $title );
  $top->geometry("600x400+50+50");
  my $tkdbi = $top->DBITable(
    -sql        => $SQL,
    -dbh        => $dbh,
    -display_id => 1,
    -debug      => 0,
  )->pack( -expand => 1, -fill => 'both' );
  $tkdbi->Subwidget('table')->configure(
    -selectmode => 'single',
    -command => \&procSelected,
    -browsecmd => sub{ printf "This is id: %s\n", $_[0] },
    );
  debug("-doDBItable");
  return $top;
}

sub procSelected {
  printf "Process record %s\n", $_[0];

}

When I click on a row the '-browsecmd' code executes, but the '-command' callback only gets called when I select the row then hit enter. According to the Tk::HList docs, and everything I can find written about the HList widget, it should respond to the double-click also.

Any suggestions?
