Thanks a lot! This worked like a charm. I'll need to dig into matplotlib a lot 
later, 
but now I have truckloads of bugs in my code to deal with, this will speed me up
significantly.

Thank you again,

Tomislav

Give this a shot:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig = pl.figure(figsize=(4,4))
ax = fig.add_sublot(1,1,1) # tweak as needed
# [plot your data]
ax.set_aspect(‘equal’)

Subject: [Matplotlib-users] axis aspect ratio
Hello everyone, 
I'm using matplotlib for plotting data results from numerical simulations that 
involve a lot of geometric calculations. 
I did read the tutorial, but I haven't been able to figure out the proper way 
to set the axis aspect ratio to "1" when 
numerical data is plotted. 
Here is an example of my plot:

since I need the aspect ratio to be "1" so that I can visually inspect my 
numerical code for bugs, I would really
appreciate the help. 
I've loaded the data using pylab.load and I've plotted the files without using 
figure or axes, just plain old
pyplot.
