ARGUMENTS
       convert_proc
		 Specifies the procedure that is to be called whenever someone
		 requests the current value of the selection.

       done_proc Specifies the procedure that is called after the requestor
		 has received the selection or NULL if the owner is not inter‐
		 ested in being called back.

       lose_selection
		 Specifies the procedure that is to be called whenever the
		 widget has lost selection ownership or NULL if the owner is
		 not interested in being called back.

       selection Specifies an atom that describes the type of the selection
		 (for example, or

       time	 Specifies the timestamp that indicates when the selection
		 ownership should commence or is to be relinquished.

DESCRIPTION
       The function informs the Intrinsics selection mechanism that a widget
       believes it owns a selection.  It returns if the widget has success‐
       fully become the owner and otherwise.  The widget may fail to become
       the owner if some other widget has asserted ownership at a time later
       than this widget.  Note that widgets can lose selection ownership
       either because someone else asserted later ownership of the selection
       or because the widget voluntarily gave up ownership of the selection.
       Also note that the lose_selection procedure is not called if the widget
       fails to obtain selection ownership in the first place.

       The function informs the Intrinsics selection mechanism that the speci‐
       fied widget is to lose ownership of the selection.  If the widget does
       not currently own the selection either because it lost the selection or
       because it never had the selection to begin with, does nothing.

       After a widget has called its convert procedure is not called even if a
       request arrives later with a timestamp during the period that this wid‐
       get owned the selection.	 However, its done procedure will be called if
       a conversion that started before the call to finishes after the call to
