Started my first Python pet project using PyGTK. Though it is a really powerful GUI toolkit and looks excellent, I have some pet peeves.

Hi all, I'm writing a python application using pygtk. I have a main thread who occasionally calls another thread that is supposed to build a string and then copy it on the clipboard before dying.
