+matplotlib for MacOS X 10.3.9 or later and Python 2.5 and Python 2.6
+
+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
+for all these packages are available here:
+
+  <http://pythonmac.org/packages/py25-fat/index.html>.
+
+*** Back Ends ***
+
+You may use TkAgg or WXAgg back ends; Qt and GTK support is not
+provided in this package. By default this matplotlib uses TkAgg
+because Tcl/Tk is included with MacOS X.
+
+If you wish to use WXAgg then:
+* Install wxPython from:
+  <http://pythonmac.org/packages/py25-fat/index.html>.
+* Configure a matplotlibrc file, as described below.
+
+For TkAgg you may use Apple's built-in Tcl/Tk or install your own 8.4.x
+
+*** Configuring a matplotlibrc file ***
+
+If you wish to change any matplotlib settings, create a file:
+  ~/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc
+
+
+that contains at least the following information. The values shown are
+the defaults in the internal matplotlibrc file; change them as you see
+fit:
+
+# the default backend; one of GTK GTKAgg GTKCairo FltkAgg QtAgg TkAgg WXAgg
+#     Agg Cairo GD GDK Paint PS PDF SVG Template
+backend      : TkAgg
+interactive  : False    # see http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/interactive.html
