[Matplotlib-users] suggestion for the toolbar

[Flavio C. C. <fcc...@ci...>]

Hi John,

What do you think of adding a button to the standara toolbar allowing 
the plotted data to be save in CSV format?

It woul be very convenient when the user wants to take the data to 
another plotting program, and the plot is a good place to save because 
the data is already sorted out. In some types of plots such as the 
histogram, the plot woul allow for saving the actual data that 
represents the histogram (such as class intervals or mid points and 
frequencies) instead of the raw data.

What do you think?

Talking about plots, I am writing a module to calculate Kernel density 
estimates (a kind of continuous histogram) would you be interested in 
adding it to matplotlib?

cheers,

Flavio
