hi,

this is exactly what i wanted, thanks!

i don't know if i understand this correctly, but i think i cannot use 
this approach. i need to update the plot several times during the script 
(showing progress of an iterative procedure) - but pylab.show() causes 
the program to halt (until the window is closed).

why is it actually not possible to do something like the following piece 
of code?

ioff()
plot commands
draw()
ion()

best,
lubos
