That zoom_plot.py file should be in enthought/chaco2/examples/zoomed_plot/ along
with grid_plot_factory.py . Get the whole SVN checkout, not just the one file.

zoomed_plot]$ pwd
/Users/rkern/svn/enthought-lib/enthought/chaco2/examples/zoomed_plot
[zoomed_plot]$ ls
__init__.py          grid_plot_factory.py wav_to_numeric.py    zoom_overlay.py
    zoom_plot.py
