NAME
     XSelectionEvent - SelectionNotify event structure

STRUCTURES
     The structure for SelectionNotify events contains:

     typedef struct {
          int type;                /* SelectionNotify */
          unsigned long serial;    /* # of last request processed by server */
          Bool send_event;         /* true if this came from a SendEvent request */
          Display *display;        /* Display the event was read from */
          Window requestor;
          Atom selection;
          Atom target;
          Atom property;           /* atom or None */
          Time time;
     } XSelectionEvent;

     When you receive this event, the structure members are set
     as follows.

     The type member is set to the event type constant name that
     uniquely identifies it.  For example, when the X server
     reports a GraphicsExpose event to a client application, it
     sends an XGraphicsExposeEvent structure with the type member
     set to GraphicsExpose.  The display member is set to a
     pointer to the display the event was read on.  The
     send_event member is set to True if the event came from a
     SendEvent protocol request.  The serial member is set from
     the serial number reported in the protocol but expanded from
     the 16-bit least-significant bits to a full 32-bit value.
     The window member is set to the window that is most useful
     to toolkit dispatchers.

     The requestor member is set to the window associated with
     the requestor of the selection.  The selection member is set
     to the atom that indicates the selection.  For example, PRI-
     MARY is used for the primary selection.  The target member
     is set to the atom that indicates the converted type.  For
     example, PIXMAP is used for a pixmap.  The property member
     is set to the atom that indicates which property the result
     was stored on.  If the conversion failed, the property
     member is set to None.  The time member is set to the time
     the conversion took place and can be a timestamp or Current-
     Time.
