[Matplotlib-users] xmax, etc. type commands

[Rick M. <rm...@sa...>]

I find the following definitions really useful:

def xmin(val):
     a = axis()
     a[0]=val
     axis(a)
     return

def xmax(val):
     a = axis()
     a[1]=val
     axis(a)
     return

def ymin(val):
     a = axis()
     a[2]=val
     axis(a)
     return

def ymax(val):
     a = axis()
     a[3]=val
     axis(a)
     return


I realize that part of the reason behind the pylab api is to mimic what 
is in matlab. But is there any reason why functions such as these 
couldn't be added?
