What is the trick to making use of the various key bindings 
for listboxes?? I've experimented with both 8.0 and 8.31 on 
Windows, and 8.0 on Linux, to no avail.  I've explored both 
simple code of my own as well as the listbox demos which are 
shipped with the distributions:

According to the documentation, the following bindings are 
installed on listboxes by default.

[5] If the Up or Down key is pressed, the location cursor (active element) 
    moves up or down one element. If the selection mode is browse or extended 
    then the new active element is also selected and all other elements are 
    deselected. In extended mode the new active element becomes the selection 
    anchor. 
[7] The Left and Right keys scroll the listbox view left and right by the 
    width of the character 0. Control-Left and Control-Right scroll the 
    listbox view left and right by the width of the window. Control-Prior  
    and Control-Next also scroll left and right by the width of the window. 
[8] The Prior and Next keys scroll the listbox view up and down by one page 
    (the height of the window). 
[9] The Home and End keys scroll the listbox horizontally to the left and 
    right edges, respectively. 

However, none of these appear to work.  
I've also tried directly binding all keypresses on the 
listbox to ring the bell, but again nothing happens.

What am I missing?
