I'm trying to run the first tutorial example in matplotlib-0.53 and am running into an ImportError. Here's the python script I'm trying to run:
import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('TkAgg')
from matplotlib.matlab import *
plot([1,2,3,4])
show()
Here's the output I'm getting:
light:gerry> python matplotlibtest.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

Thanks for any help.
