Classical solution under Tcl/Tk is to write a clone of the listbox function
which uses a "text" widget behind the scene. Another way is to use a patch
which is in the Tcl repository which extend the C code to allow multiple
selections.

However, the Tk4.0 should provide multiple selections. Since this version must
be out soon, I will wait until its release to "intergrate" the new code in
the STk core distribution.
