EDM file listing display...

[Dave Reid <dreid@u.washington.edu>]

Has anyone come up with a good way of doing a list type of display 
inside of EDM?

We currently have a list of saved settings that we use to set up our 
machine for various energies and particle types.  We manipulate (save, 
restore, print, delete) these saved sets by using an EDM screen that 
invokes linux shell scripts.

However, when we want to display a list of the saved set files, we 
invoke a C program that uses the X-windows library to display the 
directory listing and handle the mouse selection and "ok" and "cancel" 
button.  This works for us currently, but it is pretty much a house of 
cards, and any time we want to re-order how the list is displayed, we 
have to go into the C code and make changes.

Has anyone dealt with this issue before?  Any suggestions/advice?

Thanks...
