  The usual recommendation is using wxListBox/wxListCtrl instead.
Since you say in another mail that this does not fullfill other requirements,
you might try ->LoadFile( $filename ) if it is inside a physical file.

  If I read the code correctly, the listctrl only has one column,
so the call should read

  $list->SetColumnWidth(0,-1) ;
