-# Getting Started with Spreadsheet
-This guide is meant to get you started using Spreadsheet. By the end of it,
-you should be able to read and write Spreadsheets.
-
-Before you can do anything, you first need to make sure all that code is
-loaded:
-
-```ruby
-require 'spreadsheet'
-```
-
-## Reading is easy!
-
-Worksheets come in various encodings. You need to tell Spreadsheet which
-encoding you want to deal with. The default is UTF-8
-
-```ruby
-Spreadsheet.client_encoding = 'UTF-8'
-```
-
-Let's open a workbook:
-
-```ruby
-book = Spreadsheet.open '/path/to/an/excel-file.xls'
-```
-
-We can either access all the worksheets in a workbook...
-
-```ruby
-book.worksheets
-```
-
-...or access them by index or name (encoded in your `client_encoding`).
-
-```ruby
-sheet1 = book.worksheet 0
-sheet2 = book.worksheet 'Sheet1'
-```
-
-Now you can either iterate over all rows that contain some data. A call to
-`Worksheet.each` without arguments will omit empty rows at the beginning of the
-worksheet:
-
-```ruby
-sheet1.each do |row|
-  # do something interesting with a row
-end
-```
-
-Or you can tell a worksheet how many rows should be omitted at the beginning.
-The following starts at the 3rd row, regardless of whether or not it or the
-preceding rows contain any data:
-
-```ruby
-sheet2.each 2 do |row|
-  # do something interesting with a row
-end
-```
-
-Or you can access rows directly, by their index (0-based):
-
-```ruby
-row = sheet1.row(3)
-```
-
-To access the values stored in a row, treat the row like an array.
-
-```ruby
-row[0]
-```
-
-This will return a `String`, a `Float`, an `Integer`, a `Formula`, a `Link` or a `Date`
-or `DateTime` object - or `nil` if the cell is empty.
-
-More information about the formatting of a cell can be found in the format
-with the equivalent index:
-
-```ruby
-row.format 2
-```
-
-## Writing is easy
-As before, make sure you have Spreadsheet required and the client_encoding
-set. Then make a new Workbook:
-
-```ruby
-book = Spreadsheet::Workbook.new
-```
-
-Add a Worksheet and you're good to go:
-
-```ruby
-sheet1 = book.create_worksheet
-```
-
-This will create a Worksheet with the Name "Worksheet1". If you prefer another
-name, you may do either of the following:
-
-```ruby
-sheet2 = book.create_worksheet :name => 'My Second Worksheet'
-sheet1.name = 'My First Worksheet'
-```
-
-Now, add data to the Worksheet, using either Worksheet#[]=,
-Worksheet#update_row, or work directly on Row using any of the Array-Methods
-that modify an Array in place:
-
-```ruby
-sheet1.row(0).concat %w{Name Country Acknowlegement}
-sheet1[1,0] = 'Japan'
-row = sheet1.row(1)
-row.push 'Creator of Ruby'
-row.unshift 'Yukihiro Matsumoto'
-sheet1.row(2).replace [ 'Daniel J. Berger', 'U.S.A.',
-                        'Author of original code for Spreadsheet::Excel' ]
-sheet1.row(3).push 'Charles Lowe', 'Author of the ruby-ole Library'
-sheet1.row(3).insert 1, 'Unknown'
-sheet1.update_row 4, 'Hannes Wyss', 'Switzerland', 'Author'
-```
-
-Add some Formatting for flavour:
-
-```ruby
-sheet1.row(0).height = 18
-
-format = Spreadsheet::Format.new :color => :blue,
-                                 :weight => :bold,
-                                 :size => 18
-sheet1.row(0).default_format = format
-
-bold = Spreadsheet::Format.new :weight => :bold
-4.times do |x| sheet1.row(x + 1).set_format(0, bold) end
-```
-
-And finally, write the Excel File:
-
-```ruby
-book.write '/path/to/output/excel-file.xls'
-```
-
-## Modifying an existing Document
-
-Spreadsheet has some limited support for modifying an existing Document. This
-is done by copying verbatim those parts of an Excel-document which Spreadsheet
-can't modify (yet), recalculating relevant offsets, and writing the data that
-can be changed.
-Here's what should work:
-
-* Adding, changing and deleting cells.
-* You should be able to fill in Data to be evaluated by predefined Formulas
-
-Limitations:
-
-* Spreadsheet can only write BIFF8 (Excel97 and higher). The results of
-modifying an earlier version of Excel are undefined.
-* Spreadsheet does not modify Formatting at present. That means in particular
-that if you set the Value of a Cell to a Date, it can only be read as a
-Date if its Format was set correctly prior to the change.
-* Although it is theoretically possible, it is not recommended to write the
-resulting Document back to the same File/IO that it was read from.
-
-And here's how it works:
-
-```ruby
-book = Spreadsheet.open '/path/to/an/excel-file.xls'
-sheet = book.worksheet 0
-sheet.each do |row|
-  row[0] *= 2
-end
-book.write '/path/to/output/excel-file.xls'
-```
-
-Or you can directly access the cell that you want and add your text on it:
-
-```ruby
-sheet.rows[2][1] = "X"
-```
-
-## Date and DateTime
-Excel does not know a separate Datatype for Dates. Instead it encodes Dates
-into standard floating-point numbers and recognizes a Date-Cell by its
-formatting-string:
-
-```ruby
-row.format(3).number_format
-```
-
-Whenever a Cell's Format describes a Date or Time, Spreadsheet will give you
-the decoded Date or DateTime value. Should you need to access the underlying
-Float, you may do the following:
-
-```ruby
-row.at(3)
-```
-
-If for some reason the Date-recognition fails, you may force Date-decoding:
-
-```ruby
-row.date(3)
-row.datetime(3)
-```
-
-When you set the value of a Cell to a Date, Time or DateTime, Spreadsheet will
-try to set the cell's number-format to a corresponding value (one of Excel's
-builtin formats). If you have already defined a Date- or DateTime-format,
-Spreadsheet will use that instead. If a format has already been applied to
-a particular Cell, Spreadsheet will leave it untouched:
-
-```ruby
-row[4] = Date.new 1975, 8, 21
-# -> assigns the builtin Date-Format: 'M/D/YY'
-book.add_format Format.new(:number_format => 'DD.MM.YYYY hh:mm:ss')
-row[5] = DateTime.new 2008, 10, 12, 11, 59
-# -> assigns the added DateTime-Format: 'DD.MM.YYYY hh:mm:ss'
-row.set_format 6, Format.new(:number_format => 'D-MMM-YYYY')
-row[6] = Time.new 2008, 10, 12
-# -> the Format of cell 6 is left unchanged.
-```
-
-## Outline (Grouping) and Hiding
-Spreadsheet supports outline (grouping) and hiding functions from version 
-0.6.5. In order to hide rows or columns, you can use 'hidden' property. 
-As for outline, 'outline_level' property is also available. You can use 
-both 'hidden' and 'outline_level' at the same time.
-
-You can create a new file with outline and hiding rows and columns as
-follows:
-
-```ruby
-require 'spreadsheet'
-
-# create a new book and sheet
-book = Spreadsheet::Workbook.new
-sheet = book.create_worksheet
-5.times {|j| 5.times {|i| sheet[j,i] = (i+1)*10**j}}
-
-# column
-sheet.column(2).hidden = true
-sheet.column(3).hidden = true
-sheet.column(2).outline_level = 1
-sheet.column(3).outline_level = 1
-
-# row
-sheet.row(2).hidden = true
-sheet.row(3).hidden = true
-sheet.row(2).outline_level = 1
-sheet.row(3).outline_level = 1
-
-# save file
-book.write 'out.xls'
-```
-
-Also you can read an existing file and change the hidden and outline
-properties. Here is the example below:
-
-```ruby
-require 'spreadsheet'
-
-# read an existing file
-file = ARGV[0]
-book = Spreadsheet.open(file, 'rb')
-sheet= book.worksheet(0)
-
-# column
-sheet.column(2).hidden = true
-sheet.column(3).hidden = true
-sheet.column(2).outline_level = 1
-sheet.column(3).outline_level = 1
-
-# row
-sheet.row(2).hidden = true
-sheet.row(3).hidden = true
-sheet.row(2).outline_level = 1
-sheet.row(3).outline_level = 1
-
-# save file
-book.write "out.xls"
-```
-
-Notes
-* The outline_level should be under 8, which is due to the Excel data format.
-
-## Allow access to rendered output instead of just writing a file
-
-```ruby
-file_contents = StringIO.new
-book.write file_contents # => Now file_contents contains the rendered file output
-```

-
-## More about Encodings
-Spreadsheet assumes it's running on Ruby 1.8 with Iconv-support. It is your
-responsibility to handle Conversion Errors, or to prevent them e.g. by using
-the Iconv Transliteration and Ignore flags:
-Spreadsheet.client_encoding = 'LATIN1//TRANSLIT//IGNORE'
-
-## Page setup (for printing)
-
-```ruby
-sheet.pagesetup[:orientation] = :landscape # or :portrait (default)
-sheet.pagesetup[:adjust_to] = 85 # default 100
-```
-
-## Backward Compatibility
-Spreadsheet is designed to be a drop-in replacement for both ParseExcel and
-Spreadsheet::Excel. It provides a number of require-paths for backward
-compatibility with its predecessors. If you have been working with ParseExcel,
-you have probably used one or more of the following:
-
-```ruby
-require 'parseexcel'
-require 'parseexcel/parseexcel'
-require 'parseexcel/parser'
-```
-
-Either of the above will define the ParseExcel.parse method as a facade to
-Spreadsheet.open. Additionally, this will alter Spreadsheets behavior to define
-the ParseExcel::Worksheet::Cell class and fill each parsed Row with instances
-thereof, which in turn provide ParseExcel's Cell#to_s(encoding) and Cell#date
-methods.
-You will have to manually uninstall the parseexcel library.
-
-If you are upgrading from Spreadsheet::Excel, you were probably using
-Workbook#add_worksheet and Worksheet#write, write_row or write_column.
-Use the following to load the code which provides them:
-
-```ruby
-require 'spreadsheet/excel'
-```
-
-Again, you will have to manually uninstall the spreadsheet-excel library.
-
-If you perform fancy formatting, you may run into trouble as the
-Format implementation has changed considerably. If that is the case, please
-drop me a line at "zdavatz at ywesee dot com" and I will try to help you. Don't
-forget to include the offending code-snippet!
-
-All compatibility code is deprecated and will be removed in version 1.0.0
