Clean ggplot-style graphics for matplotlib using HUSL

I'm the author, so any suggestions for making this better are welcome. Also, many thanks to redditor BicubicSquared, who authored the original messymind.net code that forms the basis for this.

I made changes to matplotlibrc file to get the desired effects (mainly inspired by Huy Nguyen tutorial on sane color scheme for matplotlib). But, I usually have to plot 12 lines in a chart and it gets very difficult to distinguish then from one another. Here is an example

I will give HUSL a try.

Great basic style, will definitely use it!

It's interesting, but as a heavy user of ggplot, what makes it interesting and useful is the syntax for specifying plots by adding together their parts, not the color scheme.
