Thanks.

One final question - how would i run the MainLoop() in a separate
thread? because once i start MainLoop(), i can't do something in
ipython anymore.

I'd like to have a window open and then be able to add tabs in
that window, and everything from from within ipython. so that i
can close frames and open others later on. something of the sort:

app.MainLoop()
# make first window
frame = wx.Frame(None,-1,'Plotter')
plotter = PlotNotebook(frame)
# make one tab, plot something in it
axes1 = plotter.add('figure 1').gca()
axes1.plot([1,2,3],[2,1,4])
# use mouse and kill that tab. we want something else
# open another tab now
....

Thanks for your further help,
q
