Is there an easier way to change the order of items in a tkinter listbox than deleting the values for specific key, then re-entering new info?

To expand on Tim's answer, it is possible to do this for multiple items as well if you use the currentselection() function of the tkinter.listbox.

l = self.lstListBox
posList = l.curselection()

# exit if the list is empty
if not posList:
    return

for pos in posList:

    # skip if item is at the top
    if pos == 0:
        continue

    text = l.get(pos)
    l.delete(pos)
    l.insert(pos-1, text)

This would move all selected items up 1 position. It could also be easily adapted to move the items down. You would have to check if the item was at the end of the list instead of the top, and then add 1 to the index instead of subtract. You would also want to reverse the list for the loop so that the changing indexes wouldn't mess up future moves in the set.
