I'd say the selection/clipboard capabilities rather depend on the interpreter 
and OS. If you have wxPython, use PyCrust and go to the "Session" tab. E.g. 
here's a session recorded in that tab:

import re
5+5
for i in range(5):
     print i,

And here it is how it looks in the shell part of PyCrust, where it was actually 
typed:

 >>> import re
 >>> 5+5
10
 >>> for i in range(5):
...     print i,
...
0 1 2 3 4
