According to the docs the rc function is supposed to be able to do the
same thing as editing matplotlibrc.
I tried doing
rc('font', size=20)
and several variations of that invoked at several different places in
my file, and it seemed to have no effect.
Did I do it wrong? Does rc() not really work as advertised?
Something completely different?
For what it's worth my matplotlib.pylab.__version__ is '1.1.0'
