Array of legend labels?

Hi all,

I'm producing a plot with 11 lines, each of which must have a legend entry. I'd also like the plot to be wider than it is high.

Since I want a wide plot, I'd prefer to have my legend labels aligned in an array, rather than all 11 on top of each other. (So I can put them across the bottom of the figure.) Something like:

label1 label4 label7 label10
label2 label5 label8 label11
label3 label6 label9

Can the current matplotlib do this? If so, how?

Thanks,
Ryan
