s = r"""#### MATPLOTLIBRC FORMAT
# This is a sample matplotlib configuration file
# It should be placed in your home dir (Linux and friends) or
# in the matplotlib data path, is, where matplotlib installs it's
# data files (fonts, etc). On windows, this would be, for example,
# C:\Python23\share\matplotlib
#
# This file is best viewed in a editor which supports python mode
# syntax highlighting
#
# Blank lines, or lines starting with a comment symbol, are ignored,
# as are trailing comments. Other lines must have the format
#
# key : val # optional comment
#
# Colors: for the color values below, you can either use
# - a matplotlib color string, such as r, k, or b
# - an rgb tuple, such as (1.0, 0.5, 0.0)
# - a hex string, such as ff00ff (no '#' symbol)
# - a scalar grayscale intensity such as 0.75
#### CONFIGURATION BEGINS HERE
backend : GTK # the default backend
numerix : numeric # Numeric or numarray
interactive : False # see http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/interactive.html
### LINES
# See http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/matplotlib.lines.html for more
# information on line properties. Note antialiased rendering looks
# better, but can be slower. If you want fast antialiased rendering,
# use the agg backend (or TkAgg, or GTKAgg)
lines.linewidth : 0.5 # line width in points
lines.linestyle : - # solid line
lines.color : b # blue; color format or hex string
lines.markersize : 6 # markersize, in points
lines.antialiased : True # render lines in antialised (no jaggies)
lines.data_clipping : False # Use data clipping in addition to viewport
# clipping. Useful if you plot long data
# sets with only a fraction in the viewport
### TEXT
# text properties used by text.Text. See
# http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/matplotlib.Text.html for more
# information on text properties
text.fontname : Times # default font name
text.fontsize : 10 # default size used by axes.text
text.color : k # black
### AXES
# default face and edge color, default tick sizes,
# default fontsizes for ticklabels, and so on
axes.facecolor : w # background color; white
axes.edgecolor : k # edge color; black
axes.linewidth : 1.0 # edge linewidth
axes.grid : False # display grid or not
axes.titlesize : 14 # fontsize of the axes title
axes.labelsize : 12 # fontsize of the x any y labels
axes.labelcolor : k # black
### TICKS
tick.size : 4 # tick size in points
tick.color : k # color of the tick labels
tick.labelsize : 10 # fontsize of the tick labels
### FIGURE
figure.figsize : 8, 6 # figure size in inches
figure.dpi : 80 # figure dots per inch
figure.facecolor : 0.75 # figure facecolor; 0.75 is scalar gray
figure.edgecolor : w # figure edgecolor; w is white
### SAVING FIGURES
# the default savefig params can be different for the GUI backends.
# Eg, you may want a higher resolution, or to make the figure
# background white
savefig.dpi : 100 # figure dots per inch
savefig.facecolor : w # figure facecolor; 0.75 is scalar gray
savefig.edgecolor : w # figure edgecolor; w is white
