O.k. :o)
I've never used Python, and Matlab only once or twice, but what's with the Python syntax?
Seems a tad wordy. Looks like Nick Bower's IDL-like package in Python
(http://nickbower.com/computer/pydl) is worth another look though......

P.S. BTW, in Matlab, how do you simply multiply the corresponding matrix elements? (i.e.
not a matrix multiply).
