   According to a developer on the GTK+ mailing list, there are some
clipboard helper applications on X that watch the clipboard and try to
remember the contents after windows close and also to maintain a clipboard
history but I haven't used these myself.

   For a Windows-specific fix you can handle the clipboard directly
yourself, perhaps with the win32clipboard module from win32all.
