Re: Deleting items from a combobox

I was looking at the "methods" section of Prima::ListViewer. Here is
what it says:

delete_items ITEMS

    Deletes items from the list. ITEMS can be either an array, or a
reference to an array of item indices.

The ambiguity is that the contents of the ITEMS list are undefined.
Initially, I thought that the list contains the actual items to be
deleted and an array reference would contain indices. But after
looking at the listbox.pl example, it seems that it is a list of
indices as well. I think the problem is that you name the list ITEMS
when the list does not actually contain the same items that are in the
ListViewer. The method add_items also uses ITEMS, but does actually
pass items to be contained in the ListViewer. For delete_items, it
should possibly be INDICES instead of ITEMS. How does that sound? My
understanding of ComboBox and ListViewer may be incorrect.
