Would be nice to have sopmething added in a future release.

Ok that works but i run into another problem. If you use log or  
loglog plots e.g.

ax = py.subplot(111)
ax.loglog(data)
xtl = ax.get_xticklines()
ytl = ax.get_yticklines()

xtl and ytl are now lists with 2 entrys, one for every axis (for xtl,  
top and bottom x-axis).

top_xtl = xtl[1]

The problem is, that there only the major ticklines are returned by  
ax.get_xticklines(). How do i access (and modify) the minor ticklines?

Torsten.
