You don't specify, but I assume that you're running Windows of some flavor.
First, if you haven't already gotten the Win32 extensions, do so.  Then,
look at the module win32clipboard, which contains everything you need. It
may also be useful to look at the Platform SDK's section on the clipboard if
you're not already familiar with how it works (clipboard formats, etc.)
