On another note, I get messages like mpl/examples> python simple_plot.py -dAgg Bad key "lines.markeredgecolor" on line 48 in /home/jdhunter/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc. You probably need to get an updated matplotlibrc file from http://matplotlib.sf.net/matplotlibrc or from the matplotlib source distribution Bad key "lines.markerfacecolor" on line 47 in /home/jdhunter/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc. You probably need to get an updated matplotlibrc file from http://matplotlib.sf.net/matplotlibrc or from the matplotlib source distribution
since I did yet not update to the new rc which is to be expected. I know from experience that neophyte users are confused by this. Many mpl users don't even know that an rc file exists, what it is for, and how to find it. While you are mucking around in rc and __init__.py, you might consider a more helpful deprecation message scheme, with part of the message boilerplate and part of the message specific to the bad rc key. Eg, if a user has lines.markerfacecolor in his rc: The setting "lines.markerfacecolor" in your parameter file /home/jdhunter/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc is deprecated in this version of matplotlib. The configuration for marker facecolors was your was recently changed. blah blah blah explain the new interface and behavior. You may want to replace /home/jdhunter/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc with the latest file http://matplotlib.sf.net/matplotlibrc . Something to think about.
