[Parti-discuss] clipboard

[Antoine Martin]

Hi,

I need to have a functional clipboard, so I started adding callbacks for 
gtk.clipboard sending/receiving and quickly hit some snags:
1) I can't seem to find a way to get notified when something happens 
with the clipboard. So I adopted the dirty option of polling for changes 
after any keyboard/mouse clicks.
(but this does not cater for programmatic modification of the clipboard)
This seems to work ok.
2) Calls to the clipboard seem to be slow. (not sure why)
Would it be better to use a separate thread?

Has anyone tried this?
Suggestions?

Thanks
Antoine
