[issue40452] IDLE: preserve clipboard on closure on Windows

[Tal Einat]

Tal Einat <taleinat+python at gmail.com> added the comment:

I can reproduce this behavior on macOS as well, so this doesn't seem to be Windows-specific.

This does not happen with other apps in general, so it is not normal behavior for apps.

Testing with a minimal tkinter app (see code below) gives similar behavior, so this appears to be an issue with tkinter and/or tcl/tk.


import tkinter
text = tkinter.Text()
text.pack()
tkinter.mainloop()
