Re: [Matplotlib-users] unable to use matplotlib from inside emacs on windows

[Emin.shopper Martinian.s. <emi...@gm...>]

Dear Nicolas,

Thank you very much for your suggestion. I can now use matplotlib and pylab
in non-interactive mode in emacs, which makes me very happy.

The only thing that would make me even happier is if I could use
matplotlib/pylab in interative mode through emacs :). That's probably a
longer term issue, though.

Thanks again,
-Emin
