How about this for a stationary point:

from pylab import *

def point(x,y):
a=arange(x,x+1,1)
b=arange(y,y+1,1)

plot(a,b, 'ro', ms=3)

show()

This works for me.

Load the module "point"
Run it by typing point(x,y), where x and y are the coordinates you'd like to
see in a plot, and a magical red "point" will appear in your matplotlib
figure. You can change the color and size, of course, by modifying the color
('ro') and markersize ('ms= 3') keyword arguments to suit your needs.


Now just put in a t parameter, I guess.
