I'm working on just such a thing. I've often wondered why a Browser object
wasn't included in the appkit. Anyway, my approach begins with the creation
of a BrowserBay object which consists of a label field, a scrolling body
(SelectionCell matrix) and up/down scrolling buttons. One or more 
BrowserBays are then wrapped (perhaps with option horizontal scrollers)
into a `BrowserView'. I'll make all this available for ftp when ready,
unless somebody beats me to it.
