# Plotting class
# ==============
#
# This class uses multiprocessing to spawn a process to run code from the
# class above. When initialized, it creates a pipe and an instance of
# ``ProcessPlotter`` which will be run in a separate process.
#
# When run from the command line, the parent process sends data to the spawned
# process which is then plotted via the callback function specified in
# ``ProcessPlotter:__call__``.
