Matplotlib-users digest, Vol 1 #680 - 8 msgs

Hello, my program crashes when I try to plot using these commands. Am I
using the marker commands incorrectly? I see that there isn't a
distinction between plotting a line and symbols other than the line
style (i.e., '-' or 'o'). what then are markers? Thanks.

                    #plot the symbols
                    axes.plot(array,
                              markersize =mySize,
                              marker =myShape,
                              markerfacecolor =myFaceColor,
                              markeredgecolor =myEdgeColor,
                              markeredgewidth =myWidth,
                              label =lineLabel)

                else:
                    #plot the symbols
                    axes.plot_date(dates,
                                   array,
