        Platform_utils
        ====================
        
        Platform_utils is a library which provides several cross-platform utilities, including:
        
        * path manipulation - allows you to do several things with paths including getting the path to store application data, creating the application data directory, checking whether the app is frozen, etc.
        * clipboard - allows getting/setting clipboard text.
        * idle - allows getting the user idle time on Windows.
        * process - allows killing processes on Windows and Unix.
        * shell_integration - adds something to the context menu on Windows.
        * blackhole - disables stdout/stderr when using py2exe.
        
        Examples
        ==========
        
        Check whether the app is frozen:
        ----------------------------------------
        
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            >>> import platform_utils.paths
            >>> platform_utils.paths.is_frozen()
            False
        
        Find the recommended directory where user data files should be stored:
        --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            >>> import platform_utils.paths
            >>> platform_utils.paths.app_data_path("app name")
            u'C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Roaming\\app name'
