get offset of current selection

[Kaveh Bazargan]

I am stuck on something that should be simple. User has selected a text,
say a word in a field. How do I get the offset of the start and end of
selection? (Not any matching text, but the particular chars selected.)

I know I am going to be embarrassed at the reply. :-\
