[Matplotlib-users] .matplotlibrc not respected during interactive session

[Darren D. <dd...@co...>]

I am seeing some strange behavior during IPython and vanilla Python 
interactive sessions. My .matplotlibrc is not being respected. I have tried 
making changes to the copy in my home diretory and the one 
in /usr/share/matplotlib. If I run the commands below or do an 
execfile('/home/darren/test.py') from an interactive session, .matplotlibrc 
is not read. If I run the script from the console, .matplotlibrc is read.

I'm on gentoo with either 0.63.0 or the current cvs, python 2.3.3. Has 
anyboody else seen this? 


from matplotlib.matlab import *
a=[1,10,100,1000,10000]
figure(1)
loglog(a,a)
figure(2)
plot(a,a)
show()
