matplotlib for MacOS X 10.3.9 or later and Python 2.5 and Python 2.6
|
|
|
|
matplotlib is a python 2D plotting library which produces publication
|
|
quality figures in a variety of hardcopy formats and interactive
|
|
environments across platforms. matplotlib can be used in python
|
|
scripts, the python and ipython shell (ala matlab or mathematica), web
|
|
application servers, and various graphical user interface toolkits.
|

|
|
|
|
Before running matplotlib, you must install numpy. Binary installers
|
|
for all these packages are available here:
|
|
|
|
<http://pythonmac.org/packages/py25-fat/index.html>.
|
|
|
|
*** Back Ends ***
|
|
|
|
You may use TkAgg or WXAgg back ends; Qt and GTK support is not
|
|
provided in this package. By default this matplotlib uses TkAgg
|
|
because Tcl/Tk is included with MacOS X.
|
|
|
|
If you wish to use WXAgg then:
|
|
* Install wxPython from:
|
|
<http://pythonmac.org/packages/py25-fat/index.html>.
|
|
* Configure a matplotlibrc file, as described below.
|
|
|
|
For TkAgg you may use Apple's built-in Tcl/Tk or install your own 8.4.x
|
|
|
|
*** Configuring a matplotlibrc file ***
|
|
|
|
If you wish to change any matplotlib settings, create a file:
|
|
~/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc
|
|
|
|
|
|
that contains at least the following information. The values shown are
|
|
the defaults in the internal matplotlibrc file; change them as you see
|
|
fit:
|
|
|
|
# the default backend; one of GTK GTKAgg GTKCairo FltkAgg QtAgg TkAgg WXAgg
|
|
# Agg Cairo GD GDK Paint PS PDF SVG Template
|
|
backend : TkAgg
|
|
interactive : False # see http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/interactive.html
