+selection to request for receiving the text from the other
+applications.  The default value is nil, which means Emacs tries
+`COMPOUND_TEXT' and `UTF8_STRING', and use the more appropriate
+result.  You can explicitly specify the data type by setting the
+variable to one of the followings:
+  `COMPOUND_TEXT', `UTF8_STRING', `STRING', `TEXT'
