You may want to choose another backend. That is e.g. "agg" backend, that doesn't use a X-window. Something like the following should give what you need: >---------------------------------- import matplotlib matplotlib.use("Agg") # Please notice: Backend must be chosen before importing pylab import pylab pylab.plot( ... ) >----------------------------------- regards Matthias PS: some more information copied from the online docu: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/matplotlib_configuration_api.html?highlight=use#matplotlib.use matplotlib.use(arg, warn=True) Set the matplotlib backend to one of the known backends. The argument is case-insensitive. For the Cairo backend, the argument can have an extension to indicate the type of output. Example: use(‘cairo.pdf’) will specify a default of pdf output generated by Cairo. Note: this function must be called before importing pylab for the first time; or, if you are not using pylab, it must be called before importing matplotlib.backends. If warn is True, a warning is issued if you try and callthis after pylab or pyplot have been loaded. In certain black magic use cases, eg pyplot.switch_backends, we are doing the reloading necessary to make the backend switch work (in some cases, eg pure image backends) so one can set warn=False to supporess the warnings ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
