"""
Simple tools for plotting Neo-format data.

These tools are intended for quickly producing basic plots with simple
formatting. If you need to produce more complex and/or publication-quality
figures, it will probably be easier to use matplotlib or another plotting
package directly rather than trying to extend this module.
