[QScintilla] Bug copying text on QScintilla

[Scener Spanish]

Let's continue this conversation on my other message related to this in the
pyqt mailing list. Also, make sure you don't open the viewer till you've
closed the app... In fact, you don't even need a clip viewer, the
information won't be copied properly. Did you check on win7 or higher?

Thanks
