I see that as an advantage: you can never get bored, there's always something new to learn (I should have listened to my mom and spend less time in front of the TV as a kid). But I admit it can get a bit frustrating, when you eventually find out that there was a really simple solution to a problem, alas undocumented and buried in the code (for example, the xaxis_date thingie which doesn't do much). > I've been using matplotlib for something like > 20-40 hours right now.

I'm sure it'd be quite useful (I do have a need for it myself...) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
