/**
 * The <code>List</code> component presents the user with a
 * scrolling list of text items. The list can be set up so that
 * the user can choose either one item or multiple items.
 * <p>
 * For example, the code&nbsp;.&nbsp;.&nbsp;.
 * <p>
 * <hr><blockquote><pre>
 * List lst = new List(4, false);
 * lst.add("Mercury");
 * lst.add("Venus");
 * lst.add("Earth");
 * lst.add("JavaSoft");
 * lst.add("Mars");
 * lst.add("Jupiter");
 * lst.add("Saturn");
 * lst.add("Uranus");
 * lst.add("Neptune");
 * lst.add("Pluto");
 * cnt.add(lst);
 * </pre></blockquote><hr>
 * <p>
 * where <code>cnt</code> is a container, produces the following
 * scrolling list:
 * <p>
 * <img src="doc-files/List-1.gif"
 * alt="Shows a list containing: Venus, Earth, JavaSoft, and Mars. Javasoft is selected." ALIGN=center HSPACE=10 VSPACE=7>
 * <p>
 * If the List allows multiple selections, then clicking on
 * an item that is already selected deselects it. In the preceding
 * example, only one item from the scrolling list can be selected
 * at a time, since the second argument when creating the new scrolling
 * list is <code>false</code>. If the List does not allow multiple
 * selections, selecting an item causes any other selected item
 * to be deselected.
 * <p>
 * Note that the list in the example shown was created with four visible
 * rows.  Once the list has been created, the number of visible rows
 * cannot be changed.  A default <code>List</code> is created with
 * four rows, so that <code>lst = new List()</code> is equivalent to
 * <code>list = new List(4, false)</code>.
 * <p>
 * Beginning with Java&nbsp;1.1, the Abstract Window Toolkit
 * sends the <code>List</code> object all mouse, keyboard, and focus events
 * that occur over it. (The old AWT event model is being maintained
 * only for backwards compatibility, and its use is discouraged.)
 * <p>
 * When an item is selected or deselected by the user, AWT sends an instance
 * of <code>ItemEvent</code> to the list.
 * When the user double-clicks on an item in a scrolling list,
 * AWT sends an instance of <code>ActionEvent</code> to the
 * list following the item event. AWT also generates an action event
 * when the user presses the return key while an item in the
 * list is selected.
 * <p>
 * If an application wants to perform some action based on an item
 * in this list being selected or activated by the user, it should implement
 * <code>ItemListener</code> or <code>ActionListener</code>
 * as appropriate and register the new listener to receive
 * events from this list.
 * <p>
 * For multiple-selection scrolling lists, it is considered a better
 * user interface to use an external gesture (such as clicking on a
 * button) to trigger the action.
