Hi,
I'm working on cleaning up the key-event callback code. What is the correct
spelling of the control key? Is it "control" or "ctrl"? Different backends
spell it differently. May I homogenize things at the expense of breaking
code? Fwiw, the qt4 backend spells it both ways depending on the code p

I don't have any useful experience with CI services, but it would be nice
to have the ability to test on macos.

It would be nice to have mpl tested on a few different environments. The
obvious ones are:
clean macos
macos + brew (py2/py3)
macos + macports (2.6, 2.7, (3.1?), 3.2, 3.3)
I started a repo to install these environments on travis CI's mac
environment. I don't have all the bugs shaken out of the
That is handy information. I'll start adding a python.org target.
How broad coverage do we want?
10.6, 10.7, 10.8
system, python.org (2.7, 3.3), brew, macports
virtualenv, no virtualenv

The testing matrix blows up pretty quickly. For those of you with longer

My mac testing hasn't picked up on this, but I don't think we have any
tests that actually draw to the screen. I have noticed a i386 linking
error, but haven't gotten to it.
Is there an automated way to test this? Something like:
Make a simple plot
show()
close the window after 10s.
