Hi --
I believe that the "select-item-from-list" turnkey dialog no longer
works as documented in Mac. Allegro CL 1.3.2.
In particular,
(select-item-from-list '(a b c d) :selection-type :disjoint)
does not seem to allow disjoint selections. Rather, :disjoint appears
to have become a synonym for :contiguous. (I say "no longer works" and
"appears to have become" because I seem to remember that in 1.2,
:disjoint selections worked OK.)
(Just to make sure we're speaking the same language, I think that a
:disjoint selection type should allow multiple elements to be selected
from the list, and these elements should NOT have to be adjacent to each
other, as is the case with :contiguous.)
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
