If I call x.interact() when the vcs canvas is not open, either because I have not plotted anything yet (e.g. the canvas has never been opened) or because, I have closed the canvas with x.close(), I get an ugly traceback. It would ne nicer to print a warning message
>>> import vcs
>>> x = vcs.init()
>>> x.interact()

The error is not exactly the same if I have plotted something with bg=1, but it's the same kind
