Between scipy and matplotlib, you'll feel quite comfortable with
python as a former matlab user

help scipy.filter (see FIR filter design below)

DESCRIPTION
    Signal Processing Tools
    =======================

     Convolution:

        convolve      --  N-dimensional convolution.
        correlate     --  N-dimensional correlation.
        fftconvolve   --  N-dimensional convolution using the FFT.

        correlate2d   --  2-dimensional correlation (more options).
        sepfir2d      --  Convolve with a 2-D separable FIR filter.


     B-splines:

        bspline       --  B-spline basis function of order n.
        gauss_spline  --  Gaussian approximation to the B-spline basis
        function.
        cspline1d     --  Coefficients for 1-D cubic (3rd order)
        B-spline.
        qspline1d     --  Coefficients for 1-D quadratic (2nd order)
        B-spline.

        symiirorder1  --  2nd-order IIR filter (cascade of first-order
        systems).
        symiirorder2  --  4th-order IIR filter (cascade of
        second-order systems).
        lfilter       --  1-dimensional FIR and IIR digital linear
        filtering.

        deconvolve    --  1-d deconvolution using lfilter.
