That is worth doing, but you needn't change the defaults. You can
also pass in the arguments explicitly:
fig = plt.figure((3,3))
fig.subplots_adjust(left=0.2, bottom=0.2)
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.plot(something)
ax.set_xlabel('test', fontsize=10)
for label in ax.get_xticklabels() + ax.get_yticklabels():
label.set_fontsize(8)
plt.show()
If you do want to change the defaults via matplotlibrc, though,
something to bear in mind is that you can have "per-directory" rc
files. So for example if you want your defaults to be changed for a
figures for publication, you can drop an rc file into the scripts
directory for that publication, and that will be used for that
directory only and will not affect the global defaults in
~/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc.
