[wxPython-users] Re: Clipboard refuses

[Ben Kaplan]

The Debian repositories aren't exactly keeping up with the newest releases of wxPython. The version you are using is 14 releases behind (though I might have miscounted). Try updating wxPython and see if that makes a difference.

Thanks. 
In

head 
the 
latin-1 
and 
unicode 
intricacies 
are 
still 
a
muddle.

Her

my

a 
bit 
reorganised, 
but 
still 
not 
working
well:
