Damon, When the current state of the relevant python libraries, scipy is required to create a QQ plot. Therefore, matplotib will never be able to natively make QQ or probability plots. I've got a PR into the the statsmodels project to do just what you need (and more!). https://github.com/statsmodels/statsmodels/pull/412
It'll probably be a while before I get that PR up to par with the rest of statsmodels, so in the meantime, I suggest you use the existing functionality in statsmodels or roll your own. Good luck, -paul On Wed, Aug 15, 2012 at 4:02 PM, Damon McDougall <damon.mcdoug...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > If anyone hasn't noticed already.
