DESCRIPTION
The

All data following the start position
and up to, but not including, the end position is replaced.
If the start position and the end position are equal, the
data is inserted after the end position.
The character positions begin at zero and are numbered sequentially
from the beginning of the text.
After the replacement, the insertion cursor is positioned after the
last character inserted.
The
widget argument specifies the DtEditor widget ID.
The
startPos argument specifies the starting character position of
the portion to replace.
The replacement begins
at this character.
The
endPos argument specifies the ending character position of
the portion to replace.
The replacement ends
before this character.
The
fileName argument is the pathname of the file
relative to the local system.
