Lee Mac's Website gives a good reference for ssget.

Thank you for the recommendation
That said I don't think you can use ssget with just one point. You would at least have to use two points for the "_W" window option.
You can indeed supply a single point to the
ssget function to select geometry which passes through that point, e.g.:
(ssget pt '
((0 .
"HATCH") (8 .
"My Layer")))
However, using a single point selection in this way can prove to be unreliable in general, as the target geometry must pass
exactly through the point, which can consequently lead to a false empty selection as a result of rounding issues or dependency on the current zoom level (since the target objects must be visible within the drawing area in order to be selected using the graphical selection methods).
Instead, I would suggest using a crossing window with a small tolerance around the point, e.g.:
'((0 . "HATCH") (8 . "My Layer"))
)
Changing the tolerance depending on the use case.
