Невидимый след: автоматическая очистка метаданных из буфера обмена на Python

Существуют десятки утилит для очистки метаданных (от ExifTool до встроенных средств ОС), но у всех них есть общий минус — они требуют ручного действия. В результате родился MetaPure — фоновый демон для Windows, который перехватывает файлы в буфере обмена в момент копирования и бесшовно выжигает из них метаданные, прежде чем вы нажмете Ctrl+V . Windows хранит скопированные файлы, почему парсить XML напрямую иногда лучше, чем использовать готовые библиотеки, и какие грабли поджидают при работе с win32clipboard .

Alright, question time. Never really had luck trying this before but let's give it a go again.

I have a friend who is trying to make a dual mouse/cursor plugin/library/whatever it's called in Unity on Windows, but they are struggling with the win32 APIs they need to get it working. Is there anyone on here that knows how to do this? I know I've seen similar things on here before, but I can't find them and I don't know if there was any source code or documentation on how it was done, or even if it was on Windows. Unfortunately, it does have to be Windows. They rejected my proposal to try running it under Cygwin, and it probably wouldn't work with the features they need.

I'm a complete #programming amateur, but it's very instructive and satisfying to program an app from scratch using just #C++ and #Win32API.

Instructive, as in, applicable for any situation: As a leader, parent, or expert consultant... you have to tell this damn thing EVERYTHING. You can't take anything for granted - like "I know I told you to move left, but I guess I have to explain the concept of space and direction first".

So you have to sort your own mind well and good first. Fascinating.
