Hi,
there is some odd bug which probably nobody will care about in sselp:
It is somewhat cosmetic, searching ML on this didn't revealed anything useful.
(please point me to threads, if im wrong)
Select the *String* NULL or make the selection a newline:
Selection="
"
./sselp
Selection=NULL
,./sselp
Using XInternAtom seems to fix the Symptom:
# lit. NULL
,./sselp
NULL

I believe, there must be a better solution to this.
As a completly different question I noted that the data pointer is not
initialized to NULL:
,grep '*data' sselp.c
unsigned char *data;
unsigned char *data;
Shouldn't this look like unsigned char *data = NULL; ?
regards
Stefan
