+2014-04-22 Added an example showing the difference between

+	   `imshow()` when saving vector graphics files.

 2014-04-10 Fixed the triangular marker rendering error. The "Up" triangle was
            rendered instead of "Right" triangle and vice-versa.

 Displays the difference between interpolation = 'none' and 
 interpolation = 'nearest'.
 
-Interpolation = 'none' and 'nearest' are equivalent when converting a 
-figure to an image file, such as a PNG.  Interpolation = 'none' 
-and interpolation = 'nearest' behave quite differently, however, when 
-converting a figure to a vector graphics file, such as a PDF.  As shown, 
-Interpolation = 'none' works well when a big image is scaled down, while
