The linestyles can be obtained as the keys of the
matplotlib.lines.lineStyles dictionary; the markers are the keys of
the matplotlib.lines.lineMarkers dictionary
In [95]: matplotlib.lines.lineStyles.keys()
Out[95]: ['None', '--', '-.', '-', 'steps', ':']
In [96]: matplotlib.lines.lineMarkers.keys()
Out[96]: [0, 1, 2, 3, '+', ',', '.', '1', '3', '2', '4', '<','>',
'None', 'D', 'H', '_', '^', 'd', 'h', 'o', 'p', 's', 'v',
'x', '|']
The list of valid colornames are the keys of the
matplotlib.colors.cnames dictionary
In [97]: import matplotlib.colors
In [98]: colors = matplotlib.colors.cnames.keys()
In [99]: len(colors)
Out[99]: 139
In [100]: colors.sort()
In [101]: colors[:5]
Out[101]: ['aliceblue', 'antiquewhite', 'aqua', 'aquamarine', 'azure']
