Mike: Not that I know of. I'm puzzled by this one. You said in your 
first message that you are using numarray 0.8 - I think that might be 
too old. It's up to 1.3.1 now, and I'm sure I created that pickle with 
at least 1.1.

Hello Jeff,
I tried loading the file etopo20.pickle by itself but got the same error:
import cPickle
a =3D cPickle.load(open('etopo20.pickle','rb'))
Traceback (most recent call last):

Looking at etopo20.pickle itself, the 4th line reads
'cnumarray.generic' - I'm guessing that means it is stored using
numarray.
Do I need a specific version of python or numarray to read it? I have
both Numeric (23.1) and numarray installed already.
Mike.

There are a standard set of locations for scalp electrodes when measuring
EEG data, so if we could represent them as small, circular countries,
that'd be kinda cool. Also a couple of ovals/triangles to represent
ears/eyes/nose would be useful.
I'm a little busy for the coming week but I'll come back to this little
project once things settle down and I'll get back to you on how well it
works.
Thanks in advance for all the work you've done in getting the library to
the stage it is.

sparkplot is a short Python module I wrote that uses matplotlib to
create sparklines. For details see:
http://agiletesting.blogspot.com/2005/04/sparkplot-creating-sparklines-with.html
Kudos to everybody working on matplotlib, of course first of all to
John Hunter. I was really impressed with the functionality and
versatility of matplotlib. I'll keep trying my hand at it while
enhancing sparkplot.

Thanks for the explanation Tim. Sounds like it should work out of the 
box, provided that the map projection you need is supported. If not, 
I'll try adding it. Obviously, you don't need to plot coastlines and 
political boundaries, but is there something you would like to plot in 
their stead?

I use python org. I already uninstalled the matplotlib from windows
add/remove program and verify that no matplotlib directory in
site-packages.
After that I reinstall the matplotlib again I use version 0.80
I can't import the matplotlib even in the minimum condition.
For example I go to python shell and type import pylab, this raise the
same error.
I create your myscript.py and run it, but before it finished it shows
the same message in windows forms like I send before, and I have to
stop it.
This processed is stop because I have to cancel the program (due to
error message I sent).

Travis: The matplotlib package in fink (http://fink.sf.net) is up to 
date, and includes basemap-0.3.2. First, you'll need to install the 
developer tools. After running the fink installer, enable the unstable 
tree by editing /sw/etc/fink.conf (add 'unstable/main' and 
'unstable/crypto' to the 'Trees:' line). Then run "fink selfupdate", 
and when that is done "fink install matplotlib-py24". Go get several 
cups of coffee as fink downloads and builds a whole bunch of depedencies 
(including python 2.4.1). The fink installed python distribution will 
live entirely independently of your apple system python. I keep the 
matplotlib package up to date, so all that will be needed to get the 
latest version will be to run "fink update matplotlib-py24" 
occasionally. The disadvantage of the fink route is that you'll have to 
use X11 to run matplotlib with the gtk-agg backend, since fink python is 
a unix build and doesn't support using the native wx or tk toolkits. 
Right now I actually think of this an advantage, since as you've seen 
these toolkits are a bit buggy (the gtk-agg backend is better tested, 
since I believe it is the default under linux and windows).
-Jeff
P.S. If you decide to go this route, be sure to read section 2.3 of the 
fink user's guide 
(http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/users-guide/install.php?phpLang=en#setup).

That worked, but Matplotlib is now spitting out the error below and I

A headmap is visualisation where you plot certain values such as signal
power over the scalp. When you do an EEG recording you're often interested
in how certain values vary with location across the head and a headmap is
a way to view this.
If you think of the head as a perfect sphere, then I'd like to plot values
at certain locations in the same way that using the basemap toolkit you
can plot values of say, temperature, at different locations on the earth.

Excellent, thanks for the prompt response, Jeff.
I've just tried the ireland.py example and am at a complete loss as to
what to do about the following error.

Travis: Regarding the basemap install - you need admin privileges on 
your mac to install using "python setup.py install", so either run it as 
sudo, or if you don't have admin access try "python setup.py install 
--home=~" (this will install it in your home directory). If you do the 
latter, you'll have to add ~/lib/python to your PYTHONPATH.

Mike: My guess is I saved the data as a pickle Numeric (not numarray) object. You can either install Numeric, or I can re-pickle it for you with numarray.

Has anyone successfully installed and run matplotlib from the .dmg here:
 http://sda.iu.edu/projects.html ?
I'm able to install just fine and I can import pylab and create a plot,
but using "pylab.show()" crashes Python and returns "Segmentation Fault"
and nothing else.
Also has anyone successfully installed BaseMap on OS X?
I've attempted to install the latest BaseMap package (I believe it's
0.3.2) and receive the following error:
error: could not create
'/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/share/basemap-py23':
Permission denied
I'm running the stock Python 2.3 and Matplotlib 0.72.1 from the link
above.
Thanks,
Travis Brady
