new page with postscript output?

Hi,

Currently I'm using matplotlib on a machine to quickly evaluate whether
certain settings for a measurement are good or not - as you all know
graphical output helps. Now, I would like to dump all output in a single post
script (ps or eps) file and browse through it using ghost view.

To facilitate getting some overview it would be ideal to be able to insert
page breaks after each figure. Is this somehow possible with matplotlib
(using the pylab interface)? (To be honest, I don't really expect this. But
mpl had so many (for me) hidden features in the past, that I wouldn't be
really surprised ;-). So I thought, I better ask, although I didn't find
anything about it in the docs.)

TIA
Christian

At one time, someone included some support in backend_ps.print_figure for
passing a file object rather than a file name. For a file object,
print_figure just appends to the existing file. I dont know how to use this
properly, passing a file object to savefig raises an error.
