available there. I've long forgotten how to get a console window up in Win
XP. I can strip it all the code way down to the from, and it will fail the
same way. Bad matplotlib install? Python error?
Well, in my case, I always put a copy of the XP "Command Prompt"
shortcut on the "start" menu, customized for my tastes (font
size/rows/columns). Lacking that, you should find it under:
start/programs/accessories/command prompt. You could also do start/run
and type "cmd".
As for IDLE (which I don't use) -- possibly some conflict between
its graphics system and that of matplotlib...
Here's the code. I added finish() to it.
Runs okay on my system when started from PythonWin, but I'm likely
behind "current"
PythonWin 2.4.3 (#69, Apr 11 2006, 15:32:42) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)]
on win32.
ActivePython 2.4.3 Build 12 (ActiveState Software Inc.) based on
Python 2.4.3 (#69, Apr 11 2006, 15:32:42) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on

Let me archive my site-packages directory, and then locate a newer
matplotlib (hmmm, might need to get a newer numpy too){This is getting
nasty -- my numpy had been an egg, and the new installer is an .exe}
Okay -- matplotlib-0.98.3 and numpy-1.2.0 superpack installed...
Trying your code in a fresh PythonWin
Nope... That runs too (this time the left/right navigation arrows
displayed, but the pop-up help over the buttons wasn't).
And -- I just noticed, it IS using tk for plotting, and IDLE is also
tk; good place for conflicting event loops.
Thanks.
Oddly when I use cmd, it gets me to settings and docs. If I try c:\whatever
I get a msg, and it remains in the same folder.
I guess PythonWin is a download for another IDE than IDLE. Will modules be
available like mathplotlib if I install it, or do I have to establish them
for it? I'll look PythonWin once I get past the cmd operation.
