My x-axis is time, and as new points are plotted, even though I'm

I'm not sure I understand correctly, but if the number of xticks increases
dramatically (nobody could see the individual ticks),
Indeed, it looks like the Tick spacing is staying as it was when the
first point was plotted, so when hundreds more points are plotted, I
just get a jumble of labels on the x-axis.
the above script leads
to a different behaviour on my system.
What is that behaviour and what version of matplotlib are you using?
Shame I get that horrible exception when I do close the plot window,
wish I knew how to make it stop :-S
I don't know which exception you refer to, but sometimes if gives problems if
the interactive mode wasn't switched off ("ioff()") before the scripts ends
or "show()" is called.
If I run the attached script, and hit Ctrl-C in the DOS box running it,
I get:
C:\>python mpltest.py

I've had a similar error when I hit the red cross in the corner of the
window with other scripts, although not this one :-S
cheers,
