[AstroPy] numarray pdf 1.5 is broken. Using numdisplay, Python, PIL, and Tkinter

[Wayne Watson]

Well, that got rid of the error, but I see no image. fig was misspelled, 
and I corrected that. Program stopped at raw_input with prompt. Add 
raw_input. I checked the fits image with ccdsoft, and it looks fine.

    from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
    import pyfits

    image = pyfits.getdata('mpl51.fits')

    fig = plt.figure()
    ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
    ax.imshow(image)
    fig.canvas.draw()
    raw_input("Bye")
