The clicklistv object has a pointer to a text object and a cltextview.
To change the style of the text, you could create a style object and
call text_SetGlobalStyle  on the text object (followed by a
text_NotifyObservers call) .

The clicklist view was designed as a simple way to get back a single
clicked-upon string from the user, and these options are simply not
supported. You could make your own subclass of clklist or cltextview
that would support these, or you could try using the stringtable object
(atk/util/strtbl.c). If you need a quick option that doesn't require
programming, you could use the menterstrv view , and just tell your
users to type an X after each choice that applies. See the Adew
reference manual for info on menterstrv.
