I am trying to use (note: the operative word here is "TRYING") the 
scrolling lists feature in OPEN LOOK, and I simply couldn't figure 
out why my display gets out of sync with the internal list string 
values.  What I mean is that, I can do an xv-get on the item, and 
it returns the proper string, but that's not what gets displayed!!

So, right now, I have a line like this to force the display back 
in sync :

    xv_set( file_list, PANEL_LIST_STRING, 0,
            (char *) xv_get( file_list, PANEL_LIST_STRING, 0),
            NULL );

I have heard of the infamous "i=i" bug fix before, just not too sure 
I want to be known as the one who put it in this time...

So needless to say, I would like to get around this problem.
Any idea, what I could have done wrong there??
