Description: -------
        xlutils
        -------
        
        This package provides a collection of utilities for working with Excel
        files. Since these utilities may require either or both of the xlrd
        and xlwt packages, they are collected together here, separate from either
        package.
        
        Currently available are:
        
        **xlutils.copy**
          Tools for copying xlrd.Book objects to xlwt.Workbook objects.
        
        **xlutils.display**
          Utility functions for displaying information about xlrd-related
          objects in a user-friendly and safe fashion.
        
        **xlutils.filter**
          A mini framework for splitting and filtering Excel files into new
          Excel files.  
        
        **xlutils.margins**
          Tools for finding how much of an Excel file contains useful data.
        
        **xlutils.save**
          Tools for serializing xlrd.Book objects back to Excel files.
        
        **xlutils.styles**
          Tools for working with formatting information expressed in styles.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        The easyiest way to install `xlutils` is::
        
          easy_install xlutils
        
        Or, if you're using zc.buildout, just specify 'xlutils' as 
        a required egg.
        
        However, you can also install in the usual python fashion of unpacking
        the source distribution and running::
        
          python setup.py install
        
        If you do not install using easy_install or zc.buildout, you will 
        also need to make sure the following python packages are available 
        on your PYTHONPATH:
        
        - **xlrd**
           
          You'll need version 0.6.1a1 or later. Latest versions can be found
          here:
        
          http://pypi.python.org/pypi/xlrd
            
        - **xlwt**
        
          You'll need version 0.7.0 or later. Latest versions can be found
          here:
        
          http://pypi.python.org/pypi/xlwt
        
        - **errorhandler**
        
          This can be found here:
        
          http://pypi.python.org/pypi/errorhandler
        
        If you're installing with either easy_install or buildout, these
        dependencies will automatically be installed for you.
