There's a typo in 'PyWorkbooks Documentation.pdf' on p. 5 which contains:

  >>> from PyWorkbooks.GnWorkbooks import GnWorkbooks

but should use 'GnWorkbook' instead of 'GnWorkbooks'.

Also, although it's not a typo, on p. 6 there's:

  all addressing is in row,col form

however, in all spreadsheets, the addressing is in col,row form.
For example:

  B3

is column B row 3.  It would be easier for someone used to this
spreadsheet col,row addressing to transition to using PyWorkbooks
if PyWorkbooks also used col,row addressing.
