Command line tree parsing

[kruvva]

I have a tree of items in an XML file that I display using wx DeviceTree
control. When user selects one using mouse, its properties are displayed.
Now I have a requirement to implement the selection from a commandline
window.
1. Item selection to be similar to the folder selection in DOS terminal
window. When a tab key is pressed the nodes under the current node shall be
available for picking.
2. I want this terminal/console be part of my GUI

I am not sure where to start. Please advice if there is built-in tool or wx
window.

The StyledTextCtrl has built-in support for popup auto-complete lists.
That might be a good foundation to build upon.
