show() actually handles starting the GUI mainloop, so you really shouldn't
be calling it more than once from a script. Quite frankly, it's more
amazing that it works on your Ubuntu macine. :) If you're wanting 3
separate windows, try:
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
figure()
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
figure()
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
show()
