I looked into VTK and it certainly has good performance and good

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Looks like it works OK. I would appreciate

Hi all,
A while ago (a year or so), I was looking for a ginput-like function with
matplotlib. For those who don't know what I am talking about, it is a
blocking call that can be used in a script to ask the user to enter
coordinnate by clicking on the figure. This is incredibly handy, as it
allows

It is possible to save the current settings to a file, so only those that

I'm not up on the details of this specific issue, but in general, the

__str__ is pretty and readable

Guys, I agree with all this. It's not about the theory, but

You can now do this as well:

Hurray, mayavi and pylab can now easily live together. Thanks heaps

Hi,
I definetely don't like the fact that .__repr__() and repr() are used all
over TConfig for eg storing to file.
First of all I would like to modify __repr__ for a TConfig class to give
