Yes. fork will do that. I have just looked at it and it is the same as unix fork (module os). I am thinking of launching several forks that will produce .png images and at the end I'll call "convert" program to place those .png files into a pdf book. A poor solution but much faster. Unfortunately matplotlib seems not to be object oriented! -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
