  SVG in XML

  <g id="mygroup" fill="blue">
      <rect x="1" y="1" width="2" height="2" />
      <rect x="3" y="3" width="2" height="2" />
  </g>

  SVG in Python

  >>> svg = SVG("g", SVG("rect", x=1, y=1, width=2, height=2), \ 
  ...                SVG("rect", x=3, y=3, width=2, height=2), \ 
  ...           id="mygroup", fill="blue")

  Sub-elements and attributes may be accessed through tree-indexing:

  >>> svg = SVG("text", SVG("tspan", "hello there"), stroke="none", fill="black")
  >>> svg[0]
  <tspan (1 sub) />
  >>> svg[0, 0]
  'hello there'
  >>> svg["fill"]
  'black'

  Iteration is depth-first:

  >>> svg = SVG("g", SVG("g", SVG("line", x1=0, y1=0, x2=1, y2=1)), \
  ...                SVG("text", SVG("tspan", "hello again")))
  ... 
  >>> for ti, s in svg:
  ...     print ti, repr(s)
  ... 
  (0,) <g (1 sub) />
  (0, 0) <line x2=1 y1=0 x1=0 y2=1 />
  (0, 0, 'x2') 1
  (0, 0, 'y1') 0

  (0, 0, 'y2') 1
  (1,) <text (1 sub) />
  (1, 0) <tspan (1 sub) />
  (1, 0, 0) 'hello again'

  Use "print" to navigate:

  >>> print svg
  None                 <g (2 sub) />

  Standard tick specification:

      * True: same as -10 (below).
      * Positive number N: draw exactly N ticks, including the endpoints. To
        subdivide an axis into 10 equal-sized segments, ask for 11 ticks.
      * Negative number -N: draw at least N ticks. Ticks will be chosen with
        "natural" values, multiples of 2 or 5.
      * List of values: draw a tick mark at each value.
      * Dict of value, label pairs: draw a tick mark at each value, labeling
        it with the given string. This lets you say things like {3.14159: "pi"}.
      * False or None: no ticks.

  Standard minitick specification:

      * True: draw miniticks with "natural" values, more closely spaced than
        the ticks.
      * Positive number N: draw exactly N miniticks, including the endpoints.
        To subdivide an axis into 100 equal-sized segments, ask for 101 miniticks.
      * Negative number -N: draw at least N miniticks.
      * List of values: draw a minitick mark at each value.
      * False or None: no miniticks. 

  Standard tick label specification:

      * True: use the unumber function (described below)
      * Format string: standard format strings, e.g. "%5.2f" for 12.34
      * Python callable: function that converts numbers to strings
      * False or None: no labels
