Running a recent build from svn on OSX 10.5, the TkAgg interface
becomes unresponsive after plotting a histogram and calling show().
Here is a sample from the process, in case it is useful:

I'm not seeing this with tkagg on 10.5. hist is working fine for me
both in ipython and running histogram_demo.py -- what tcl/tk are you
building against?
For reference, I'm attaching my build output. My build notes are at
http://ipython.scipy.org/moin/Py4Science/InstallationOSX. Let me know
if any substantive differences leap out at you.

Is it only hist that is hanging? Does plot work.... This one has me
a bit stumped.

Possibly related to the _tkagg extension -- that's what defines the "PyAggImagePhoto" method. If you installed ActiveState's Tcl/Tk after building matplotlib, that could explain this. Try doing a clean build of matplotlib again (removing the build directory first).
But that's only a suggestion -- I don't use Macs much.

Thanks for the suggestion. I did do a fresh svn update and build after
installing Tk/Tcl.

Sorry for the confusion, I was still on the *old* problem of tkagg
hanging w/ hist, and was wondering if it was hanging with other plot
commands too. Not that you can easily test now w/ the active tcl
install.

Chris, if you get some time to explore this further, I'd like to see
if we can sort it out. If you could remove the acive tcl and do a
clean rebuild of mpl, I'd like to verify the hang still exists, and
whether it is hist or all plot commands, and et some version info (eg
what tcl/tk) and see a copy of the mpl build output. Also, I'd like
to see a run w/ --verbose-debug output. I find it strange because I
am on the same platform and am not having any troubles (yet) with
tkagg.

John,
I removed ActiveTcl and the hang seems to have disappeared, both for
hist and plot.
