José, I would take a look at the Scipy Superpack (http://trichech.us/). Alternatively, you can download and install the MacPython 2.5 for OS X 10.4 (http://www.pythonmac.org/packages/py25-fat/index.html). This installs a separate Python framework (leaving the system python framework unchanged).

Stephen, The CocoaAgg backend is not supported in IPython. You can use it in the non-interactive form (i.e. with a pylab.show() but you will have to close the window in order to return control to the IPython shell). It is possible to embed an MPL plot in a Cocoa application using the same

Matt, Yes, I agree. I wasn't coming at so much from the goal of making Pylab a Matlab clone (as you point out, that's silly, and misses much of the advantage of Python), but rather from the goal of making interactive use as efficient as possible. When I fire up ipython -pylab to do some quick
