That won't work because mpl converts all tex png raster to black and
white and handles color on its own in post-processing. The following
does work:
import numpy , pylab
x = numpy.arange( 0.0 , 5.0 )
pylab.rc( 'text' , usetex=True )
pylab.title( r'$\rm{colored\ title\ wanted}$', color='blue' )
pylab.plot( x )
pylab.savefig( 'test.png' )
pylab.show()
