x and y axis through (0,0)

Hello,

Thanks very much for matplotlib its fast becoming the main tool I use for plotting!
I'm fairly new to matplotlib so apologies if this seems like an obvious question. I'm plotting a fairly standard scatter plot using plot.
something like....

plot(x,y,'kx')

and my data is normalised so ([-1,1],[-1,1]).

How can I create a plot with x and y axis (inc ticks and labels) through the origin (0,0)?

Many thanks for any help

David
