Hi Jeremy Tanks a lot for your answer.
Sorry for this question, I saw some posts on this topics between you and the author of matplotlib in April 2005 and was wondering if you think to switch back to your first implementation of veuz with matplotlib. Behind this question I have the idea of using ipython -pylab + matplotlib and veusz as amatlab-like tools. To me I think that this kind of combinations would make a killer app: very good and widely used 2d and 3d plotting library + interactive command line interface for the manipulation of array with ipython -pylab and a very good and intuitive GUI to fine tune the plot. I have search for some days now for a good plotting and data manipulation package and found matplotlib (but no GUI) and veusz. I think that a lot of matplotlib users are looking for a strong and powerfull GUI and to me veusz will do the job perfectly ! Perhap's it could be a good idea to send a post to scipy-dev or matplotlib lists to know this ? I'm sorry but I can't help you to write an interface layer between the two systems (my knowledge in python is at this time near zero ...). Just a my two cents to tell you that your veusz application is so good. Keep going on this way and you will make scientific users so happy ! Have a nice day.
