This isn't exactly a vtcl issue, but I'm wondering if anyone knows of
a scrolling listbox type widget that is optimized for large amounts of
data.
The problem with the standard widgets is you have to load the entire
listbox with all the data in advance. This can be pitifully slow for
large amounts of data.
I'd like to find something that can act as a viewer into a data
structure that loads the data as you scroll. So, from the user
perspective, scrolling might be a bit slower, but the initial startup
would be nearly instantaneous.
Is anything like this available for Tcl/Tk? How about for perl-tk?
Thanks,
Curt.
