I thought I might be able to simply specify that the field is a "checkbox
field", or is a button with contents that displays as checkboxes, but that
doesn't seem to be the case. I can't find an example of this basic scenario
in the manual. Is there a resource I can access for how to use checkboxes in
this manner?

One method I've used successfully is to use "imagesource" in the field. Put the items you want to display into in a list field as usual. Then insert a known character as the first one in each line (I often use a space for this.) On the card somewhere, store 2 small hidden images. One is an image of a checkbox in its checked state, and the other is an image of an unchecked checkbox.

Whenever you want to set the state of the checkbox, do this:

set the imagesource of char 1 of line <line number> of fld "list" to <imgID>

The "imgID" variable is the ID of the correct image, "checked" or "unchecked". Your scripts can determine whether the line is checked or not by simply reading the imagesource of the first character of the line, which will be the ID of the appropriate image.
