       Atom selection (in)		       The name of the selection to be owned, such as XA_PRIMARY.

       Tk_LostSelProc *proc (in)	       Procedure to invoke when tkwin loses selection ownership later.

DESCRIPTION

       Tk_OwnSelection	arranges  for  tkwin to become the new owner of the selection specified by the atom selection.	After this call completes,
       future requests for the selection will be directed to handlers created for tkwin using Tk_CreateSelHandler.  When  tkwin  eventually  loses
       the  selection  ownership, proc will be invoked so that the window can clean itself up (e.g. by unhighlighting the selection).  Proc should
       have arguments and result that match the type Tk_LostSelProc:
	      typedef void Tk_LostSelProc(ClientData clientData);
       The clientData parameter to proc is a copy of the clientData argument given to Tk_OwnSelection, and is usually a pointer to a  data  struc-
       ture containing application-specific information about tkwin.
