New submission from E. Paine <paineeli...@gmail.com>:
Currently, on a Windows machine, the clipboard contents is lost when the root is closed. This, therefore requires you to keep the IDLE instance open until after the copy has been complete (particularly annoying when copying between different IDLE instances). The solution is to pipe the tkinter clipboard contents to "clip.exe" (built-in to Windows) which will preserve it after root closure. ---------- assignee: terry.reedy components: IDLE messages: 367765 nosy: epaine, terry.reedy priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: IDLE preserve clipboard on closure (Windows) versions: Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40452> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
