cool.

I had to make a change to get it to run:

mpl.use('WXAgg') has to come before "import pylab"

once running, it's not working quite right: the tooltip always is at the 
bottom of the Window, though it does track the X location.

oddly it looks likeit's getting it's coords in figure units (0 to 1), 
whcih shouldn't work with a wxWindow.

Also, I'm getting the tooltip even when the window doesnot have focus 
and is under other windows -- at least when the mouse is over an exposed 
part of the window. That's probably a wx issue.

Python 2.4.3
 >> wx.__version__
'2.6.3.0'
 >>> matplotlib.__version__
'0.87.5'

wxGTK on on Fedora core 4 linux.
