  DtEditorCutToClipboard3 and DtEditorCopyToClipboard3.	 Text can be selected
  and deselected programmatically with DtEditorSelectAll3 and
  DtEditorDeselect3.

  The widget argument specifies the DtEditor widget ID.

  For a complete definition of the DtEditor widget and its associated
  resources, see DtEditor3.

RETURN VALUE

  True; otherwise, if the widget does not own the primary selection, the
  function returns False.
