I've just started using matplotlib, and I'm stumped on where to
find basic info. I've search the users guide, tutorial, and
FAQ, and I can't find things as simple as a list of what the
color specifiers are. I've figured out that 'r' is red, 'k' is
black, but I can't figure out where stuff like that is
documented.
Likewise for line-style.
Where is the basic usage info at?

There is quite a bit of information in docstrings. If you use ipython -pylab (highly recommended), then try:
plot?
From a standard python shell, the equivalent is
import pylab
help(pylab.plot)

Highly useful. Ignore the numarray/astronomy language; it's being
updated for numpy, and it contains precisely all those really handy
tables you're asking for.
