I want a user's guide for the class API. So far I've figured it out by reading examples, trying to extrapolate from the pylab user's guide (which is quite good) and reading the class API reference, but I feel that I barely understand what I am doing. > - what are the things you'd like to explore of matplotlib and never > had time to do? I'd like to know how best to handle plotting data as it arrives (e.g. strip charts and evolving x-y plots). I've got code that works but am not convinced I'm doing it in the best fashion.
