change font in legend?

Hi, I just discovered matplotlib, it seems really cool &

    > just what I have been looking for.

    > I have a hopefully simple question: How can I change the
    > font size and type of the legend, and how can I remove the
    > frame around the legend?

I put the required changes in matplotlib-0.50. See
examples/legend_demo.py for examples of how to change the legend font
properties, turn off the legend frame, control the legend line props,
etc...
