setvars - set plotting variables

file=None - output file name
title_fontsize=None - title fontsize, default=15
text_fontsize=’normal’ - text font size, default=11
axis_label_fontsize=None - axis label fontsize, default=11
title_fontweight=’normal’ - title fontweight
text_fontweight=’normal’ - text font weight
axis_label_fontweight=’normal’ - axis font weight
continent_thickness=1.5 - default=1.5
continent_color=’k’ - default=’k’ (black)
continent_linestyle=’solid’ - default=’k’ (black)
viewer=’display’ - use ImageMagick display program to display
the pictures. Set to ‘matplotlib’ to use the
built in matplotlib viewer. display is non-blocking
of the command prompt while the built in matplotlib
viewer is blocking. Set to anything else to not
view the picture.
tspace_year=None - time axis spacing in years

tspace_day=None - time axis spacing in days
tspace_hour=None - time axis spacing in hours
xtick_label_rotation=0 - rotation of xtick labels
xtick_label_align=’center’ - alignment of xtick labels
ytick_label_rotation=0 - rotation of ytick labels
ytick_label_align=’right’ - alignment of ytick labels
legend_text_size=‘11’ - legend text size
legend_text_weight=’normal’ - legend text weight
cs_uniform=True - make a uniform differential colour scale
master_title=None - master title text
master_title_location=[0.5,0.95] - master title location
master_title_fontsize=30 - master title font size
master_title_fontweight=’normal’ - master title font weight
dpi=None - dots per inch setting
land_color=None - land colour
ocean_color=None - ocean colour
lake_color=None - lake colour
rotated_grid_spacing=10 - rotated grid spacing in degrees
rotated_deg_spacing=0.75 - rotated grid spacing between graticule dots
