Description

Copies the selected text into a buffer and returns the number of characters copied.

Use GetSelTextBuf to copy the selected text into a character buffer. If there is no selection, the buffer receives an empty string. If the selection contains more than (BufSize - 1) characters, only the first (BufSize - 1) characters are copied. GetSelTextBuf returns the number of characters that were actually copied into the buffer.
