Hi all!!

I am experiencing a "strange" thing when trying to use the win32clipboard
module that comes with Active State's Active Python distro...

The thing is, I want to "load" a list of strings to the "main" clipboard
(thing loading a list of alternate URLs to clipoard managers like GetRight
:-)

The thing is, I OpenCliboard(), I SetClipboardText(text) and I can
GetClipboardData(format), but I can't "get" the clipboard data from outside
apps (not even after I've CloseClipboard() )... It seems like I've gotten a
"new" clipboard all for myself...

So, what would I have to do to manage things "as usual"??

Ideas, pointers??

    TIA

    Javier
