Is there a sorted feature built into the wxListBox, or does it have to be done externally? Can't find anything in the poorly written manual.

I don't know wxpython, but you could try going

dir(wxListBox)

and see if you see anything along the lines of 'sort'

or you could try help(wxListBox) or help(wxPython)

That's all I can help.

I did it like this,

(Toggle Plain Text)

self.commandList = {'Channel Up': 'c+', 'Channel Down': 'c-', 'Vol Up': 'v+', 'Vol Down': 'v-', 'Guide': 'g', 'Settings': 's',
                      'Select': 'sel', 'Page Up': 'p+', 'Page Down': 'p-', 'Mute': 'm', 'A Key': 'A', 'B Key': 'B', 'C Key': 'C', 
                      'Up Arrow': 'u', 'Down Arrow': 'd', 'Left Arrow': 'l', 'Right Arrow': 'r', 'Info': 'i', 'Exit': 'e','Launch Diags': 'launch', 'Channel #': '#'}
        
self.choices = self.commandList.keys()
self.choices.sort()

self.listbox = wx.ListBox(self, -1, (120, 50), (90, 120), self.choices, wx.LB_SINGLE)
self.Bind(wx.EVT_LISTBOX, self.EvtListBox, self.listbox)

Basically sort the list before you put it in the ListBox.
