Do you have any problems related to pylab? Or are you concerned about disk consumption? > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 80375 2006-01-24 00:28 > /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/matplotlib/pylab.py -rw-r--r-- 1 root > root 96202 2006-05-07 13:44 > /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/matplotlib/pylab.pyc -rw-r--r-- 1 root > root 96202 2006-05-07 13:45 > /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/matplotlib/pylab.pyo > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 31 2004-12-10 03:05 > /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/pylab.py > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 160 2006-05-07 13:44 > /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/pylab.pyc > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 160 2006-05-07 13:45 > /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/pylab.pyo > > > my sys.path shows that /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/ is present. > > **************************************************************** > $cat /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/pylab.py > from matplotlib.pylab import * > **************************************************************** > > This imports all names except those beginning with an underscore (_).
