The contents of the downloaded zip file:


http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyworkbooks/files/PyWorkbooksFiles.zip/download

contains:

  PyWorkbooksFiles/PyWorkbooks Documentation.pdf

Page 14 of that claims:

  Included in any distribution is
  the folder titled GnumericTutorials.

However, I couldn't find such a folder in the
table of contents(TOC) of the .zip file.
The TOC did have:

  -rw-r--r--      9635  19-Mar-2011  21:05:40
PyWorkbooksFiles/GnumericFiles/tutorial_external.gnumeric
  -rw-r--r--      1458  13-Mar-2011  17:45:38
PyWorkbooksFiles/GnumericFiles/tutorial_external.py
  -rw-r--r--      2132  19-Mar-2011  21:12:02
PyWorkbooksFiles/GnumericFiles/tutorial_external.pyc

Should Page 14 instead read "folder titled GnumericFiles"?
I did open "/GnumericFiles/tutorial_external.gnumeric", and pressed F9
as instructed by the contents of that worksheet as well as
page 15 of PyWorkbooks Documentation.pdf; however, there
were several cells with #NAME? in them indicated the function
calls in those cells were not being found.  Before that,
I had copied the .gnumerics folder from the .zip file
to my home directory as instructed on page 14 of the .pdf file.

Anything else I should do to make the tutorial work?
