'''
Demonstration of quiver and quiverkey functions. This is using the
new version coming from the code in quiver.py.
Known problem: the plot autoscaling does not take into account
the arrows, so those on the boundaries are often out of the picture.
This is *not* an easy problem to solve in a perfectly general way.
The workaround is to manually expand the axes.
