Explanation:

This monitor_clipboard function continually monitors the system clipboard for changes, alerts on new content, and takes action accordingly. Here's a detailed breakdown:

Functionality

1.     Initialize Last Clipboard State:

o   last_clipboard = "": Starts with an empty string to track the previous clipboard content.

2.     Monitor Clipboard in a Loop:

o   A while True loop continuously checks the clipboard content using pyperclip.paste().

3.     Detect Clipboard Changes:

o   If the current clipboard content (clipboard_content) differs from last_clipboard, it implies new content has been copied.

4.     Take Action on New Content:

o   Updates last_clipboard to the new content.

o   Prints a message: "Copy-paste detected!".

o   Calls take_screenshot() to capture the current screen.

o   Sends an email alert using send_email, including the clipboard text and the screenshot.

o   Deletes the screenshot file (os.remove(screenshot_path)) to save storage.

5.     Error Handling:

o   Any exceptions (e.g., issues accessing the clipboard) are caught, and an error message is printed.

6.     Pause Between Checks:

o   The time.sleep(1) introduces a 1-second delay between clipboard checks, reducing CPU usage.
