Extended characters in MATPLOTLIB (newbie)

A

Andrew Holme

I'm using MATPLOTLIB on Windows.

How can I get extended characters such as the micro symbol (greek letter mu)
to appear in my axis labels?

I've tried:

xlabel('µs', font)

and

xlabel('\xB5s', font)

but it just appears as a box.

TIA

Found it:

xlabel(r'$\mu s$', fontsize=20)
