can you provide an example? The reference help is only two lines!  

Given:
[code]
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.broken_barh([ (110, 30), (150, 10) ] , (10, 9), facecolors='b',
label='barh')

ax.set_xlim((0,200))
ax.set_ylim((0,50))

ax.legend()

plt.show()
[/code]

How do I import what in order to, say, create a plot
"plot([0.0],[0.0],'bs')" so that I can at least plot a marker of the same
color as my broken_barh so that when the legend is added, the correct icon
precedes the label?

I tried adding 

pp = plt.plot([80],[40],'bs', label='proxy artist')

to the previous program, right before the legend command, but it actually
plots the marker, too.

Is there a way to import "plot" or "Line2D" or something so that I can
produce an artist that is NOT related to the plot and, hence, not plotted?
(is that what "proxy artist" means?).
