Hi,

With current CVS:

1. Start a new document.
2. Add some text.
3. Resize that text.

gives a load of assertion failures and then a segfault. After a cvs up -D 2004-04-19 everything's ok.

It appears to be the new SPSelection code, which is _Very_ alpha at the moment. It would be most efficient to wait until mental gets up in the morning I think. I'm digging, and it seems that selection->desktop is null. but I haven't worked out why.

This seems to fix it:

Mental, could you check whether this is appropriate? I will commit if so.

Thanks
