DESCRIPTION

     Tk_ClearSelection cancels the  selection  specified  by  the
     atom selection for the display containing tkwin.  The selec-
     tion need not be in tkwin itself or even in tkwin's applica-
     tion.  If there is a window anywhere on tkwin's display that
     owns selection, the window will be notified and  the  selec-
     tion will be cleared.  If there is no owner for selection on
     the display, then the procedure has no effect.
