Hello!

I just started trying to learn Python using the spyder environment (I do 
astrophysics research and am tired of other languages and graphing 
applications).

I am simply trying to utilize matplotlib, which I believe should be 
included with Spyder, but on 3 separate machines now I get the same error, 
included below.

I have used the Mac OSX .dmg installation for all of the attempts, and I 
believe all computers have been running 10.6.8.

I simply type, in console, "from matplotlib.pyplot import *" which leads to:

">>> from matplotlib.pyplot import *
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File

    from matplotlib import ft2font

I was hoping someone could help me out, thank you!
