Detecting the Selected Unit

I want to create a trigger that says when Player 1 (Red) types a certain text command, the game displays information about the selected unit. I can set up the player types string event, but how do I say "If selected unit is equal to footman, then do this, else do that?"

Any help that can be given on this subject will be greatly appreciated!

I would say the best way for this is:
Player 1 selects a unit
Set tempSelected[1] = selected unit


Player 1 types -info
Player 2 types -info
...
Player 12 types -info

if
--unit-type of tempSelected[player number of (trigger player)] == footman
then
--display text Blah blah
else
--
[rest of units]

You said set set the variable to Selected Unit, but I have been unable to locate it... Am I missing something? Would triggering unit work?

this displays the units name and health correctly
