Re: [Matplotlib-users] how to avoid import backend in the batch job?

[Chao Y. <cha...@gm...>]

Thanks Damon, it's very clear now.
I explicit set the backend as "GTKAgg" in my ipython user configuration
file. and always set the backend to 'Agg' in my rc file. So that when I use
ipython, I can see the window interactively, but when I use script, it also
works :P
