Ok problem(s) solved, thanks a lot for the efficient help (this also taught me how to go through the code more thoroughly)
* for the record: I had a pylab.py in the site-packages directory, probably a left-over from some other installation, which was interfering with the pylab.py which should be the one under matplotlib/. I just removed it now and it works well. * and you were right, the funny "try this" was a left over of many tests I had done to track down the problem (mea culpa on that one) thanks again, all works beautifully (and consistently) now. cheers Eric ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beautiful is writing same markup.
