I use pause in matlab to cycle through an interactive do-loop and view a bunch of plots in interactively…
Don’t bother reproducing it here, but I am just wondering if this is possible in ipython/matplotlib
Many thanks,
Ben Racine
I've had the same problem. You can write a pause function using the
python input() function but it hangs the GIL and as a result your
window becomes unresponsive. If anyone knows a GIL friendly way to
pause i would also be very interested.

pylab.waitforbuttonpress will do what you want.

waitforbuttonpress immediately returns for any keyboard or mouse event
(from the gui canvas).
If you want to examine the plot (pan, zoom, etc) with mouse, a quick
solution would be to use a loop
while not waitforbuttonpress():
pass
The loop stops only for a key press.
Also, take a look at ginput().
