Pretty interesting! I hope I can convince my Prof to go for pyhton using your arguments ... but I do not understand that there is a problem with publication quality graphics. For 2D matplotlib should be enough; for 3D mayavi2/tvtk and python-vtk should be able to produce quality graphics too!?
I don't really understand either. As I said earlier, I have some grips about matplotlib, but the export is not one of them, I would say it is a strong point of matplotlib, on the contrary; I always find matlab's way of exporting clumsy, and latex support in matplotlib is easier to use, too. The only problem I ever had with matplotlib for exporting to eps for articles is to have wasted one half hour to find a way to get transparent background. David
