Hi Monks,

In the below code, if the user clicks on APPLE(which will be displayed) under ONE, i need to know the path 'one.apple' This is currently possible but only with double-click(using -command). How can i change this binding to single click?

Quoting from HList in CPAN-> Switch: -command Specifies the perl/Tk callback to be executed when the user invokes a list entry in the HList widget. Normally the user invokes a list entry by double-clicking it or pressing the Return key. 

use Tk;
use Tk::HList;

my $mw = MainWindow->new(-title=>'HList');
my $hlist = $mw->HList->pack;
foreach(qw/one two three one.apple two.grapes three.apple/){
my $path = $_;
(my $display_entry = $_) =~ s/.*\.//;
my $uc_entry = uc($display_entry);
$hlist->add($_, -text => $uc_entry);
}
MainLoop;
