To do this right, you will probably need to write a tk application and
embed matplotlib in it, rather than try to use pylab.  See the
embedding_in_tk*.py examples at http://matplotlib.sf.net/examples/.
There is also a tutorial on working with the matplotlib artist API at
http://matplotlib.sf.net/pycon

  http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/pycon/artist_api_tut.pdf

There are a couple of other FAQs that are relevant
