 matplotlib is a python 2D plotting library which produces publication
 quality figures in a variety of hardcopy formats and interactive
 environments across platforms. matplotlib can be used in python
 scripts, the python and ipython shell (ala matlab or mathematica), web
 application servers, and various graphical user interface toolkits.
 
-Home page: <http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/>
-
-Before running matplotlib, you must install numpy.  Binary installers

-*** Setup from source using Pip ***

-*** Back Ends ***
-
-You may use TkAgg or WXAgg back ends; Qt and GTK support is not

-If you wish to use WXAgg then:
-* Install wxPython from:
