1. Wiper comprising an elongate cleaning strip which is substantially made of flexible material and a holder for fixating the cleaning strip, wherein the cleaning strip comprises a wiping strip which protrudes with respect to the holder along substantially its entire length and comprises a wiping edge which extends along the longitudinal direction of the cleaning strip wherein the holder, at the location of the two ends of the wiping strip, comprises a respective retaining support with a support surface which extends opposite the surface of the wiping strip and extends substantially up to the wiping edge in order to retain the wiping strip locally during use of the wiper, wherein, viewed along the longitudinal direction of the cleaning strip, a distance between the support surface of the retaining supports and the surface of the wiping strip diminishes towards the ends of the wiping strip. 2. Wiper according to claim 1, wherein the retaining supports, at least at the location of the wiping strip, are substantially made of a material whose elasticity is lower than the elasticity of the material of the cleaning strip. 3. Wiper according to claim 1, wherein the retaining supports, at least at the location of the wiping strip are substantially made of a material with a hardness of less than 150 Shore D. 4. Wiper according to claim 2, wherein the retaining supports, at least at the location of the wiping strip, are substantially made of plastic. 5. Wiper according to claim 1, wherein the support surface of each retaining support touches an opposite surface of the wiping strip at the location of the ends of the wiping strip. 6. Wiper according to claim 5, wherein the retaining supports keep the wiping strip, at the location of its ends, in a bent position with respect to the longitudinal direction of the wiping strip. 7. Wiper according to claim 1, wherein each retaining support has an end edge which extends along the surface of the wiping strip almost as far as the wiping edge, and which in this case makes an angle with the longitudinal direction, this angle being between 5 and 30°. 8. Wiper according to claim 1, wherein the holder comprises an elongate central portion which extends along the longitudinal direction of the cleaning strip, and in that the retaining supports are attached to the ends of the central portion and thus form the ends of the holder. 9. Wiper according to claim 8, wherein the central portion has a plate part which extends along the top surface of the cleaning strip up to said wiping strip with wiping edge, so that the wiping strip remains free, and in that each retaining support comprises an end edge which continues above the wiping strip from the plate part and extends obliquely to the end of the wiping strip at the location of the wiping edge at an angle with the longitudinal direction, viewed along the plane of the top surface, said angle being between 5° and 20°. 10. Wiper according to claim 8, wherein the central portion is substantially made of metal. 11. Wiper according to claim 8, wherein the retaining supports extend along the end portions of the cleaning strip. 12. Wiper according to claim 11, wherein the end portions of the cleaning strip are bevelled in the direction of the wiping edge. 13. Wiper according to claim 12, wherein the end portions of the cleaning strip are bevelled divergently in the direction of the wiping edge.
