[matplotlib-devel] 0.91.2 release plans

2008-01-04 Thread John Hunter
It looks like the trunk has stabilized with the important bugs fixed, so I think it would be a good time to push out the 0.91.2 release, perhaps Monday. Charlie, are you available for this? Does anyone have any reason to delay? Thanks, JDH ---

The built-in mathtext support does not support "\underline" (and never did AFAICT). It sounds like you had "text.usetex" turned on in your matplotlibrc, and now for some reason or other you don't. Cheers, Mike Nils Wagner wrote: > Hi all, > > I have some trouble with the following lines > >
