Description

I am trying to build a list like the radiolist_dialog, but not a full screen version. I also, want to add the ability to click the items on the list.

Do you have an example for that? I can put together a tutorial if you help me out. (tutorial like the sql-cli example you have).

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing radiolist_dialog implementation and the sql-cli example mentioned in the issue. Create a tutorial showing a non-full-screen list whose items respond to mouse clicks, and consider the work done when the example is clear enough for users to run and adapt.
