Add spines and ticks in rcParams#2702

@olgabot Do you want to try to get this into shape to make it into 1.4.0? |

It looks like this is not going to make it into 1.4.0, but I encourage continuing with it; it fits in with the new style mechanism. Although we are conservative about changing long-established default behavior, we certainly would like to see design improvements such as your prettyplot become directly accessible in mpl without needing any external library. Maybe this should be a focus for 1.5. |

Maybe a silly question, but if I want to get this going, do I need to clone olgabot repo, and then submit an other PR? |

You can add olgabot as a remote to your current mpl clone and then make a On Thu, Mar 5, 2015, 12:16 Gilles Marin notifications@github.com wrote:
