I can do part of what you ask by using a global integer variable whose value
I toggle with one script to indicate whether to be in "selection" mode or
not. Then there are two more scripts, one for each arrow key, which looks
at the global variable and if it is set, sends a shift keystroke through to
the application with the appropriate arrow key. This can actually select
and unselect a string of characters in notepad, but there are problems with
getting the scripts to speak the current character, and in deciding whether
more left arrow keys have been pressed than right arrow keys, which would
mean you are extending the selection towards the beginning of the line.
