/**
  Inserts text to editable box.

  (*) Note! If both `tagClose` and `sampleText` is empty
  then `tagOpen` is used to replace selection.

  For example:
  1. Nothing is selected.
  2. This is executed: sel_t3.insertText('<b>', '</b>', 'bold')
  3. This is inserted at cursor postion: <b>bold</b>

  1. Selected text is "important".
  2. This is executed: sel_t3.insertText('<b>', '</b>', 'bold')
  3. This replaces selection: <b>important</b>

  When something is selected this is equivalent:
  sel_t3.insertText('<b>', '</b>', 'bold')
  sel_t3.insertText('<b>', '</b>')

  And for a single argument...
  1. Nothing is selected.
  2. You run sel_t3.insertText('<br>')
  3. This is inserted at cursor postion: <br>

  1. "x" is selected.
  2. You run sel_t3.insertText('<br>')
  3. This replaces selection: <br> (so "x" is removed)


  @param tagOpen Text to insert at selection start. (*) Or to replace selection.
  @param tagClose (optional) Text to insert at selection end.
  @param sampleText (optional) Text to insert in-between if selection is empty.

  @return false when nothing was inserted.
