RE: ListBoxControl
To set some things strait:

A listbox is not a listview (and vice versa). What Felu has showed is a ListView control, not a ListBox control.

Setting up controls is all the same though, only some have different attributes and all. Everything, including examples can be found in the Official Scripting Documentation > XML schemas reference > interface windows > ...
And of course in other scripts...

An example of a ListBox control can be found in the Plus! Preferences > General > Main > Change Language.
An example of a ListView control can be found in the Plus! Sound Library.

As you can see a ListView can be shown in different modes. The right hand side window in Windows Explorer is a nice example of this. That too is a ListView and you can select how you want to see your files: small icons, large icons, as a list, as tiles, etc... all that is possible with a ListView control.

A ListBox can only be a simple list, nothing more.

(So it also speaks for its own that a ListBox also uses far less memory and is far easier to set up and control than a ListView control)
