hello all,

i am a Debian user looking for a python plotting library that can support rendering greek symbols and other various characters on plot axes labels, etc. i would prefer something that adheres to tex formatting (as implemented in latex, matlab, etc and has the form $\alpha$ to represent the greekcharacter alpha for example).

thus far, i've found that matplotlib (http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/) can do this, albeit the implementation is so poor that you cannot mix standard text with symbols on the same plot element.

This problem has been solved as of, I believe, matplotlib v 0.81. Normal text and TeX math symbols can be intermixed at will now.
