RE: [Matplotlib-users] Simple plot command fails

[Zelakiewicz, S. (Research) <zel...@cr...>]

Still no luck.  I am not trying to run this interactively.  Switching
between TkAgg and GTKAgg does not seem to do anything.

Here is the output from  `python simple_plot.py --verbose-helpful`

Thanks again,
Scott.

To test your installation, cd into the examples dir and try running
simple_plot.py from the unix shell.

  > cd examples
  > python simple_plot.py

  OR you can choose your backend from the shell with

  > python simple_plot.py -dTkAgg    
  > python simple_plot.py -dGTKAgg

If that works, almost surely you have an interactive problem that will
be cleared up with the links above.  If now, rerun the script with
--verbose-helpful and report back.

Good luck,
JDH
