however, this seems to work (though it looks perhaps a bit odd) >>> import matplotlib as mpl >>> import matplotlib.artist >>> mpl.artist <module 'matplotlib.artist' from '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/artist.pyc'> I do like this better -- names like mpl_*** rub me the wrong way. it looks like you really want a namespace -- and indeed you do! maybe the real solution is to have the matplotlib called "mpl" from the get go, like wxPython does: import wx wx.Whatever... I do wish that: >>> import matplotlib as mpl >>> import mpl.artist Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named mpl.artist worked. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
