It turns out there's a rather helpful page at http://geosci.uchicago.edu/~tobis/pylab.html
which (since I'm not using matplotlib) I might never have found, but which is referred to in the manual for IPython. Some of this stuff could be gathered together for the wiki . . . I'll look at doing that, but everybody else will have to correct it.
