At the moment it looks trivial. I have matplotlib 0.84 and "new scipy" 
installed and did:
ipython -pylab
import scipy as S
x=S.arange(10)
plot(x,x**2)
and got a plot.

One more thought:

What about with savefig()? As long as we can set ppi there, it would be 
nice to set a pixel size of the Figure as well.

Thanks for the response.
I have a plot that has a maximum magnitude of about 0.2. I'd like to set the
radius of the plot circle to 1.
