For the GtkCList it saves the currently selected row number(s)
in member GList *selection and *selection_end.

So to get the selected rows you would:

gint row = -1;
GList *glist = clist->selection;

while(glist != NULL)
{
        row = (gint)glist->data;
        glist = glist->next;
}

So now you get the oldest selected row. There's a more efficient
way to just use selection_end as the starting point ofcourse.

Remember row numbers start at index 0, -1 means none selected
in this example.
