Yes this should be possible using tcltk. Could you give a little more detail of what you are trying to do? Are you putting the text in a text widget (mini-wordproccessor type window) or an entry widget (small, 1 line of text)? The methods are a little different between them. Also, do you want to click a button after making the selection to capture the text? or some other way to indicate that you have made the selection?
