This is what I've now come to understand, but it seems very odd. Why
wouldn't it return the list of strings, or alternatively, how can you get
the list of strings? I guess you have to use the pyplot tools, but I was
trying to use so called 'fine grain' control and do everything at the axes
level.

In fact, what you show is how I was testing in ipython and it does worked,
it just seemed in a script it would be better to use the axis method, but
apparently it is different from the gca() method. This is what I don't
understand.
Thanks!
