Hi all

I'm sure this is documented somewhere, but I can't find it.

I'm finally getting around to learning ipython, which is pathetic as it 
sure seems like a great tool.

Anyway, I want to be able to have a simple script that does some 
plotting with MPL, and run it with python's "run". Then change the 
script and run again, and have the plot updated -- this does not seem to 
happen. It appears to work if I close th figure by clicking on the 
Window close button, then "run", but that's kind of a pain.

What am I missing?

example script:


import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

x = (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8)
y = (6,2,6,4,6,4,7,5)

plt.plot(x, y)
plt.grid('on')
plt.show()


the I want to be able to do:


In [32]: run test_ipython.py

get a plot, then change some of the numbers in the script and:

In [33]: run test_ipython.py

then get an updated plot.

It's not doing that now.


what am I missing?

thanks,
-Chris
