How to catch the clipboard event (onChangeClipboard equivalent) from any application in Python
Question: I am working on a clipboard manager. My current issue is to succeed in
catching modification of the clipboard from any applications. For instance :

  * From a ctrl - c
  * From a right click and copy to clipboard

The idea is that a python script is running in background, like a deamon and
catch every change of the clipboard

Thank you a lot :)

PS: For people who know autohotkey, I am looking for onClipboardChange
equivalent


Answer: I found in the web a solution using GTK. It works :)

    
    
    import sys
    from gi.repository import Gtk, Gdk
    
    
    def callBack(*args):
        print("Clipboard changed. New value = " + clip.wait_for_text())
    
    
    clip = Gtk.Clipboard.get(Gdk.SELECTION_CLIPBOARD)
    clip.connect('owner-change',callBack)
    Gtk.main()
    

Does anybody has a solution with QT or a more native solution ?
