-Object-oriented interface
--------------------------
-
-Damon McDougall has reduced some of the boilerplate code needed to interact
-with the object-oriented interface. Now a figure canvas is set up by default::
-
-    >>> from matplotlib.figure import Figure
-    >>> fig = Figure()
-    >>> ax = fig.add_subplot(1, 1, 1)
-    >>> fig.savefig('figure.pdf')

 Peter Würtz wrote a backend that allows matplotlib to export figures as
