The one 'preliminary' solution I found is using an interactive mode +
raw_input.
Here is and example,
ion()
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
raw_input('Type Enter')
clf()
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
raw_input('Type_Enter')
clf()
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
show()
With this approach, I can press the enter when I want to see next figure.
Though It's not as convenient as 'multiple show()'..
