Fails to capture anything copied from Blender

[gandalf3]

Anything copied from Blender doesn't end up in clipster's history.
Blender works fine with clipit, so I suspect this is a clipster issue.

Debug output:

% clipster -d -l DEBUG

Hi - thanks for reporting this!

I can firstly confirm that this definitely was a bug - though it is caused by an unusual way that Blender notified clipboard events.

My code was being conservative, and looking for modified targets when an owner-change event was handled. However for some reason Blender doesn't set these, so my code treated it as a no-op, and didn't actually update the clipboard.

I've modified the code (taking a lead from clipit) and now always try to read text from the clipboard first, and then deal with failures afterwards.

I've tested this out with Blender as well I can (I'm not a user) and clipster now seems to receive clipboard contents correctly (and other tests are still passing).

I've pushed this as release 1.0.2 - please let me know if this fixes things for you!

Wow, that was quick. That indeed seems to have fixed things, thanks!
