This is an attempt at fixing #14 but includes a couple of extra fixes.

This fix looks right to me. Thank you.

The only comment I have is that your Travis tests don't run test_Atl.py, which probably would have caught this bug (since you don't have travis install matplotlib as a dependency). So I'd suggest editing test_Atl.py to move the matplotlib stuff to a separate script (and fixing the astrop typo that shows up there as well) and including it in your travis script.

Or possibly add matplotlib to the travis dependencies and keep the matplotlib stuff in that test file. But it seems like something you should include in your Travis CI.

In the longer term, I'd also suggest that this test script should include more code patterns that you list in your Examples page of the documentation. But that's obviously a bigger job, so it deserves to be a separate issue.

Any chance this could be merged? And a new version released?

It's not a stopper of anything, but it wastes CPU cycles on GalSim's Travis CI runs. We install matplotlib there just to satisfy the (implicit) dependency on it by starlink.

Sorry. I'll make a release sometime this week.

Atl.py only has one function that uses graphics and this is the
only file that imports matplotlib even if graphics are not going
to be used. Deferring means that most users of pyast do not
require matplotlib if they are not using plotting.

Importing Grf pulls in matplotlib, which can cause conflicts, for instance
between GTK2 and GTK3 symbols.
