A logical choice would be a treeview widget: that way browsing the nested groups would be quite more effective.


Indeed, this is sort of simulating a tree view. The important point to solve, though, was how to store the tree in the ini file without losing too much compatibility. The # GROUP and # end tags in between the engine lines are an effective solution for that, not interfering with other code that uses the engine lists.

Back to the topic, from the post I didn't understand how to go back to a parent group, once you have entered one and you realized that what you were looking for was elsewhere (sorry I can't just try it right now, I'm at work).


In the shown example, when you are in the Xiangqi group, the first item of the drop-down list is '# Xiangqi Engines', and you simply select that.
